Re: Rich " Mr. Chevy's" 1970 Chevrolet Nova SS 396/375
Yes Bill, that sounds correct on the back spacing, I actually can't remember now what exactly the measurements were.. I know one of the big things with the back spacing is for disc brake clearance.. The car rides very good believe it or not.. Of course nothing rides like radials.. But you would be surprised how nice it actually rides..

Re: Rich " Mr. Chevy's" 1970 Chevrolet Nova SS 396/375
The only other back spacing available on the 15 x 6 Cragar's, is 2"...and 2.5 on the rear. I assume those are the "deep dish" wheels...not good for Nova's.
Rich, Your Nova looks great, as well as Grady's with the Cragar's/slicks/skinnies up front. I think I'll go that route, unless I decide to stick with white steelies in the back.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Mr. Chevy</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I changed the front tires out this summer to skinnies for a little different look... Over the late winter/early spring I plan on installing 4:10 gears in the rear with Moser Axels and new Universal Joints... I have 3:73s back there now with the stock axels... I'll be ready for National Trails in the spring Doug!!
Rich   </div></div> Great looking set up Rich. I would skip the 4:10's and go with a 4:56 set up. Will be much improved and will be no problem driving on the street and to the track. car looks great!
