Stock tubs you can do a 10" wheel with a 275 tire. I have seen a few guys run 285-295's on stock tubs but would def need perfect BS on the wheels and possibly rolling the 1/4 lips.

Mini-tubs 12" wheels are standard. Some guys run 12.5 and 335 tire. Some run 345's but again you can run into clearance issues.

For the 4-link lots of kits out there. What is your budget and intended use of the car?

I'm running the Alston G-link, pretty simple install to the body, and you have to install the brackets to your own rear end. Otherwise other good choices off the top of my head would be DSE Quadralink, AME 4 link, Speedtech TQ Arm, Jakes Rod Shop TQ Arm, Ridetech Airbar or the G-Bar which is similar to the G-link. You could also look at TCI and Heidts.

I would probably talk to some of the sponsors on the site to see costs between these and amount of work required to install.

Agreed. You can run a 275 if you are centered well, virtually no fender lip work- mild trim or roll will suffice on a '69.
We've done it MANY times.

Good luck!
