I need a bit of help before I order my wheels.
Car:
69 Camaro
Ridetech upper/lower strong arms
Ridetech tru-turn kit with spindle
Wilwood big brake kit 140-12271-D (Wilwood states +0.38" wider with kit, I assume per side)
I got everything mentioned above on the car and measured wheel mount surface to wheel mount surface in the front with the suspension hanging. I squared the rotors by measuring the front and rear and adjusted until they were even.
Wheel mount surface to wheel mount surface was 60" even.
Questions:
- What is the stock disc brake WMS to WMS measurement in the front? (I've searched, but find conflicting reports)
- I plan to run 18x8 front with 5.25" backspace (4.875" standard fitment, plus 0.375" from Wilwood extra width), is this the proper train of thought?
- I believe the parts I took off (SSBC 2" drop spindles, disc kit) measured 59.5", but I can't remember. It may have been 57.5". Does this sound reasonable?
The rear wheels will be 18x12 5.5" BS. CCW D110, gloss black lip, satin black face. The plan is to put them under the car (which is now mini-tubbed) and measure WMS to WMS in the rear and order the rear end (Chassisworks G-Link). Tires to be 245/40/18 and 335/30/18 BFG Rival S.
