Ok, I have a stock 1972 cutlass, I want to put wide tires on it but i don't know exactly what rim to get or what tires! What I'm looking for is to have 5 1/2" back spacing, a tire that is 10.5" wide and the second width to be no greater then 12.5". Mounted on a 10" wheel. Can anyone please tell me what tire to get?

 

295-50-15s are quite popular.

 

Go to Summit and search for the tire size and rims with your criteria and you'll get back the results.

 

If you want to run a 10" rim on a 70-72 Cutlass be sure that the rear rim has 5.5" of back spacing. Anything but 5.5" and the rims will not be entered in the wheel well.

Before you pick a tire size what gear ratio do you have and how much power is your engine making?
