    What size rear wheels and tires are you running. Just curious. Setting up a 48 Chevy Coupe suspension, and looking to run 15" steel wheels in the rear. Would like to know width, backspace, and tire size. Pics would be super.

    thanks

    I guess I should ask for rear end widths as a reference too.

    Thanks guys!
