Old thread, but I'm ordering tires and wheels for my 68 Camaro, and this is undoubtedly my favorite first gen stance and tire/wheel combo period. Am planning on new Torq thrust D and Pro Tracs. Can anyone tell me exactly the tire and wheel sizes, including backspacing? Thanks.

I have brand new 8.5" Torque Thrust D's with those same M/T tires on the rears. The ones I have are an NOS set of H50/15 Mickey Thompson Indy's with the exact same tread pattern. I also have a set of skinny fronts to match up with them as well. All mounted up and ready for the right 67 or 68 car. All I need now is the right 68. (lol)

Well duh!!

Pie crust tires like those fronts just scream the era

Yeah...the Harry Man car.

Like how did I not see you waiting to pop out of the corner there on that comment Tim. :no:

I am still kicking myself for not buying the Harry Mann 68 when it was in Ohio and hour from me

I'm half expecting it to show up at Tim's place again. Right Tim? :headbang:

NorCam, that's the idea, I just plan a on a little wider fronts. What backspacing is on your rears? And what's the tread width on your H50's? On the Bill Thomas car, ad says 15x8 rears, 14x7 fronts. There's only 1 offset avail on the 14x6 fronts through Torq Thrust, (14x7 not listed as available), but a number of rear offsets for the 15x8's and 15x8.5's. Are those L60-15's on the Bill Thomas car? (I'm thinking N-50's would stick out farther, but I'm not sure.

Looks like L60's on the Bill Thomas car. They are 28 x 9.50 which is two inches taller than mine but a half inch narrower. The H50's are low profile and measure 26 x 10. They fit the wheels nicely which are 8.5" TT with 3.75 backspace. A little less height which still looks great on a 68 with the right suspension set.

I have L60s on my 67... They fit nicely on an 8" wide rim
