They are 15 inch with BFGoodrich 255/60/15 tires. I love the RWL on the tires so I thought I would give them a shot on these wheels. I like it. The first picture should be a before and after comparison shot. The car has changed quite a bit in the last year or so.

Great look...what's the backspacing on those?

The backspaciing is 4 1/2 on them. When I had my rallies on they didn't rub, but these seem to rub a little easier. Just have to learn to drive a little different.

I meant for my initail post to say that it could be a comparison to my photo that was in the online car show. Somehow my thoughts didn't make it out of my fingers to the keyboard. Here is that pic incase you don't remember it.

Vette(s): 1975 Coupe NOM 350: Edelbrock 64cc heads, QJet clone, Performer manifold & cam, gear drive and water pump; MSD ProBillet dist and 6A box, Comp rollers, Hedman headers into true duals, Magnaflow cans,TH400 w/shift kit, TT2's, 3.70RA, hi-rise hood
<I'm way behind on my board reading!>

I've been running TTII's on my '75 for over a year, and have had zero rubbing with 4.5 in backspacing. The TTII spokes are flaired to clear calipers ... unlike the drum-era original TT's.
