I bought these wheels from a guy who ordered wrong for his '69 Camaro.I know they aren't ideal backspacing...or width...but I bought them for pennies on the dollar so I am trying to make them work.Right now the rears are too far inward for my tastes and I am working on some wheel adapters (not spacers) to bring them out 1 1/4-1 1/2".These are super strong billet alloy and are a cheaper alternative then widening the wheels.

Stay tuned...

tones2SS,

I will post some underhood pics later,I'm headed out to the track with my '69 camaro.
