I’m trying to make sure some wheels/tires will fit my 67 and hoping someone here might know off the top of their head. Found a picture of some wheels/tires I liked on a guys 442. He’s running American racing 17x9.5s with 4.5 backset on the rear, and 17x8s on the front.
just wanting to confirm these will fit without heavy modification on a stock set up.
the 9.5 wide wheels were actually discontinued, so I’m thinking I might try these 17x9s with backset of 5.47 and offset +12mm. Here is the link

Tire size for the rear tire is 255x50x17
front wheel is 17x8 backset 4.5 and offset 0.00mm. Tire size 225x50x17
ive attached a picture of his set up on the silver 442, and a picture of my completely stock turquoise cutlass.
