1979 Z28 Wheel & Tire help
Hello, New to forum and need some wheel and tire help.
I'm looking for a nice wide stance on my rear wheel and tire. What is the widest I can go with a 15" wheel, and what tire would fit that without any rub?
I guess I would also need backspacing info, any help will be greatly appreciated.

Here are some ballpark figures that are really close P275/60R15 or p265/50R15 on 15x9 with 5" or 4.75" Backspace or 15x8 with 4.5 Backspace but double check and make sure.
But I know those tires both work on 15x8 and 4.5 bs for sure because p295 almost fit on that but rub slightly.

Sounds like a good place to start. I too was thinking a P275/60R15 would be about right. Thanks!
