18x9 with 6.125 bs I think. Have to double check. Wilwood 14" aero brakes. I can quote all of it if you wish. I am direct top level dealer with most all the manufacturers including Ridetech, Wilwood and Forgeline.
ugh I was all set on a 5.5 front back spacing per ridetech recommendation. seeing 6.125 makes me rethink it all. I am running the baer pro + brakes.

I used 8.5 with 5.5 backspacing on my wife's 69 so Mike is pretty much spot on for a 9" wheel. When you go wider you have to push it in further. Not sure why this makes you rethink everything...
What width of wheel did Ridetech specify for the 5.5 back spacing?

Don thanks again for all the guidance
I specifically asked about a 18x9 wheel and they said 5.5 BS would be perfect.

Based on my 8.5 with a 5.5 backspacing I would go with Mike's number. I think it would rub otherwise. Either that or you will need a lot of negative camber.
