Technical Wheel fitment question - '62 Olds 88

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by alteredpilot, Oct 21, 2014.

  1. I'm talking to a guy about a set of wheels BUT my car is in storage and i cant run over there to get some measurements right now....

    can anyone tell me if a 15X7 with a backspacing of 3 3/8" will fit? the rear wheel house looks pretty narrow.

    OR

    what will and wont fit under the wheel wells...

    any input is greatly appreciated.

    thanks.

    We put some 15x7s with almost a 4" back space on my brother's 62 Dynamic 88 with no issues that I remember.

    I had a set of Rocket Racing Wheels on my 62 Starfire that I can measure when I'm at my shop next time. Front were 6x15 though. My car is lowered 3" and I remember minimal issues with tire rubbing on front fenders when steering fully turned and theres a bump in the road...
    Other than that they fit well. I had 215/75B15 bias plys on em
