Ordered a 302 from Blueprint. Should be here in a couple of weeks. I've followed this forum as a non member for some time.
Have found a lot of good advice. the reason I joined you all.
What has driven me crazy is the advice on tire sizes, and wheel sizes.
Please someone tell me if a 275/40/17 will fit on the rear of a 1983 GLX Convertable?

Also depends on the ride height. I have 285/40 17 on 11" Cobra replica wheels. Flipped quads and stock rear springs. Only get minor rub on the outer edge if I turn in to a steep lot at an angle. But all other driving conditions, I've never had an issue.

Thank you John
Surprised me that there were no quad shocks
On this car..
When I was having the frame connectors welded in I looked everything over.
There was nothing there to even have quad shocks.
I really appreciate your input.
Been driving me crazy about the size for the rear end.
