I don’t like to...

    Wheel size and back spaceing

    The chart helps a lot. What size, besides stock, would you go for? I was thinking about a 16X8 in the rear and a 16x5 in the front. The car doesn’t have power steering in it yet, and with the 15x7 all around it right now, it is not a pleasure to drive, it’s more like work. I like the look of the...

    I have a 1967 coupe with stock rear end and would like to know what the largest wheel is that I can put on the rear and it fit well. If any one can make some suggestions on wheel size, and back spacing as well as tire size I would sure appreciate it.

    67 mustang 289 Help!!

    you may have had a temp vapor lock. Once you slowed down let the motor cool down a little, and the fuel line re load, the problem went away.... Thats my take on what happend. Unless there were other problems at the same time as the power surge, IE, heavy vibrations, knocking, pinging, smells...
