Tire size on a 76 Camaro LT
1976 Camaro - currently has 195/65/14. Has a 10 bolt posi trac with 3.73 gears and a stroker engine.
Also has traction/slapper bars in the rear under the leaf springs.
I want to go with some 15 inch wheels - 15X8. Any suggestions on the correct back spacing on the wheels and a good tire size?

I had 255/60/15's on the back of my 1977 with 15x7 wheels and 4.25" backspacing.
For an 8" wide wheel, I would go with at least 4.5" backspacing.
For the front tires, 235/60/15's may be the biggest you could go.
