Do you have any pictures with a 67 or 68 with this size on them

Is the general concensus a 20x10 with a 275 will fit athe rear of a 67-68 Camaro? Are you relocating springs to accomplish thus?

It'll fit on a stocker, but it won't be able to sit low. No way that will tuck under the wheel house. Just depends on what's more important to you.

My plan is to drop it 2" with a Hotchkis TVS kit. Would a 20x8.5 be better or should I just stick with 18" all around?

I think I still have all the paper work for the car somewhere. PM me and I'll see if I can find it.

I know your looking at a bigger wheel but I had 17x11 with a 315/40/17 on the back of mine, 5.5 back spacing and all i did was roll the outer lip a little and they never rubbed. I have a few pics of the car on the track and you can see the wheel going into the wheel well. I'm still running springs in the rear.
