I want to upgrade to 5 lug 17" wheels on my II. I have a front brake kit from Rod & Custom that I did not use on my 1968 Coupe. I also have a rear from a 1965 Mustang that I plan on using. What is the largest wheel and tire that will fit? I plan on rolling the the fenders and quarters for more clearance. What is the back space that I need?

Thanks,
Rusty

Your best bet would be to scroll through the section "Wheels and Tires known to fit". I run 15's on mine, 15x8, 4.5 backspacing on the rear. The fronts are 15x4, I am assuming your not looking at that skinny of a combo on the front....
