planning out my rims, need some help

[pokertramp]

I am going with soft 8's or the other ones with the red stripe, forgot the name. I have a 1982 Regal and want 15 inch rims....What size can I go with and how do I order them??

I know the lug pattern is 5 on 4.75....I want to go with 15x8 rims and have a nice sized tire that is almost flush with the wheel well lip both ways,,,meaning sticking out and height,, but will not hit the frame. What else do I need to know???? Backspacing???


Thanks in advance.

15x7 in the front 235/60

i am loving them

i have about 5/8 inch between the back tire and the frame rail.

true, but ive heard everyone talking about getting them but this is the first that ive seen with them...and you dont see many gbodys driving around anyways so whats the chances you run in to one with these wheels...you have better chances seeing one with 26s lol
