Well gents,
The info requested is Hub to Hub =66". Truck width is 74". I purchased some Coys Monday due to Nice wheel+on sale. Orginal Camaro SS wheels are 21x9 with 7.25 backspacing. I'm going to try 20x8.5 with 5.25 backspacing, which leaves 3.25 outside x2 +66 =72.5 + 1/4 steel tube stock rolled in the fender lip, extra metal removed x2 = 73 and a 1/2" on each side for gap = 74. HAHAHA now if that works out. I'm calling GOD to thank him.
