will 9.5 inch wide wheels fit on the rear of a 78 buick regal with 5 inch back spacing?
im thinking black boss 338's would look sick on a white 78 and wondering if they would fit?
planning on dropping the car 1" with Eibach springs.
and would i still be able to run 275's out back?

Well, don't have a for sure answer. But probly. Go look at my build Thread, the 22s I had were 10" wide, horrible offset, but did have 1" spacers. They barely fit, but the backspace was more than 5 even with the spacers I'm pretty sure.
 
ill run spacers if i have to that no big deal, ill get ARP wheel studs if i have to, i dont wanna notch the frame or roll fenders because, well i cant do that.
 
Yeah, you might be able to run em without spacers. But you can for sure if you do run spacers. Haha yeah that's understandable lol.
 
I'm running a 18x9.5 in the rear with 5.5" backspace. I also have a 1" spacer on it, but that's almost too much. Your 5" backspace should work.
