i just bought a car that has 295's on it, the tires fit decently under the car on the unknown rims. i have a pair of weld prostars that are 4.5(?) inch back spacing. do you think that the tires will work on the rim? and do you think it will fit under the car?

I've got 295/50/15's on 15X8 vintage ralleys with 4.5 back spacing and they fit fine, whole tire inside fender.

anyone have pictures of this i am thinking of this and would like to see some pics??????

Jb give me a bit to get the pics, i can get you pics on the unknown rim though

Well, that settles it. I was thinking of replacing my 275s with 295s and now I am definetly going to do it. Thanks Elfmaze!

I bought some 15X8.5 with 4.75 backspacing at carlise they are identical to my factory turbine wheel except for the center cap hole.

That is the same rims my friend have on his 73 Firebird, dont know the name tough.

I had 295/50/15's on the back of mine before the switch to the 17's..I threw a couple of pictures of the 295's on a Weld Draglites.
They are on the 2nd page of picts under the "70 Camaro" link.
They are just inside the wheel well lip.
