I took a measurement and there seems to be 6.5" from the hub to the wheel arch lip The current wheels on the rear are 18 x 9.5 with 5.75" backspace with 265/40/18 tyres With the current tyre on there is about 1.5" between the edge of the tyre and the wheel arch

This is my current wheels, 18 x 9.5 with 265/40/18's on the rear, not sure on the backspace though, their website lists them as available in 6.75" , 5.75" or 5.25" so i'll have to take one off and check With the current wheel off any idea what measurements I need to do in the arch to see if...

With what backspace though?

I'm buying new wheels for my 70 Satellite, for the rears i'm a bit unsure what tyres to fit I'm getting 15 x 8 for the rear but they have a 3.75" backspace, ideally I would like 275/60/15 but do you think that size would rub ? The fronts i'm going with 15 x 7 with 225/70/15 I think, also 3.75"...

Any pics Pro-Streeter ? That's the combination i'm considering, thanks

Do you think 285/70/15 would be too wide on the rear with the 3.75in backspace ? They do 255/70/15 and 265/70/15 also

Nice car, wow that looks like it sits quite high at the rear, is that stock suspension height or you have gas shocks?

Hello i'm new here from London, England, just bought a 70 Satellite. Is anyone running 70 profile tyres on 15’s ? Any pics ? I just want to get an idea of much taller they look as opposed to 50 or 60 profile tyres. I want to change the current wheels and get a set of 15's but I can't let the...
