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?

18" all around is the way to go. 20" is way to big and ends up goofy looking IMHO.

The rear should be 19" and front is 18". I have 18" all the way around on my 67 Camaro, but the 19" on Mayhem seems to fill the wheelwell better.

My 67 Bird
18x8 and 18x10.5 no tub
And I could not be happier

http://forums.performanceyears.com/f...d.php?t=714841

the most perfect fit would have been 4 13/16 BS front and 5 7/8 BS rear

Big sway bars and perfect bump stops keep you from worrying about rub.

285/40/18 has the perfect height and width for a 67 F body.
