Tire and Wheel Sizes
Bob,
Peter tells me he'll be starting on my 427S/C near the end of this month. I'm getting ready to order the tires and wheels but I want to make sure the wheels I end up with are a good fit. I've decided to go with 17 inch wheels. Here's what I think I need. Please let me know if you see any problems or have other recommendations. Front: 275/40-17 mounted on 9.5 inch wide wheels. Backspacing (mounting surface to back edge of the wheel) 3-3/8 inches. 5 on 4-3/4 bolt pattern. Rear: 335/35-17 mounted on 11.5 inch wide wheels. Backspacing between 3 and 3-3/8 inches. 5 on 4-3/4 bolt pattern. Also, the place I'm ordering the wheels from wants to know the protrusion distance between the outer most edge of the caliper and the mounting surface of the rotor. Can you tell me that dimension? Thanks for the help. Chris |
