I just bought a set of 335/30/19 Nitto NT05's for my car. They are on a 19x12.5 rim and fit perfect. Saying that only because the tire selection is real limited for sticky rubber in that size. PS2, NT05 or Hoosier slicks. If you bump up to 345/30/19 I believe the best tire is the PS2. Nitto makes an tire called an INVO which is a good street tire. Not sure what you are looking for in a tire or what you plan on doing with your car.
I like the look of an 18/19 on a 69 camaro and went with those sizes knowing I was going to be tire limited. I will tell you the 335/19 does look bad ass mocked up on my car.
Paton... Cris (JCG) Is going to send me his back space tool and I just need a mockup tire to mount on it. So thats why I don't care what brand of tire it is as long as its in this size range. Hell I don't care if its bald, has a hole in it,flat spoted just need one.

that you are trying to figure out the backspacing for a rim that will work under your 69?
I have some data from my 69 that may be helpful. What are you trying to figure out?

I have the rear end ready to bolt in. I'm just about to finish up my outter wheel houses then I can start measuring. Yes.. back space/offset. Just don't want to make any mistakes.. I was going to use Kjells measurements from MCC its the same exact rear end set up as mine he also has Mikes frame rails and Mikes extra deep tubs witch is another 2.75 added to the DSE tubs. So we have a ton of extra room. Then I found out from Zak at BOZE FORGE that my hoop will be different because of the ZR-1 calipers so he wants me to make sure I have everything measured correctly. Trust me I would have my wheels already if I used Kjells measurements but I want my wheel to be as close to the quarter lip as possible. Kjells is just a little to far in for me. So thats one more reason. Hope this makes sense...:cheers:

Black 69 with DSE sub, HRE's, LS7, guy from europe? Call me at 704-564-8577. I can get you any measurement and picture you want.
Not sure why the brakes would make a difference as he is running the huge Baer 6s. They are as large or larger than the ZR-1 stuff.

Mike just e-mailed me this info!!
Just to make sure you understand ! My big tubs and frame rails lets you have around 16.5 “ to 17” of tire room. My tube and frame rails in a 69 Camaro will let you run up to a 385 mm tire if done right. Kjells car was built with a 345 mm tire and the rim was done for a 365 to 385 mm tire to go on later. This is y the 345mm tire in kjells car looks like it in some. If you put a 365mm tire on his car now it would be out as far as it can go.. Now if I take the wheel spacer off and put a 385mm tire on the car it would have the same room inside and out with around 1/4” room to move around in.
PS. Michelin makes a 355,365,385,395,405, and 415mm tires… other guys do to… “ and for kjell saying you have to CUT you outer wheel well to get the tire out far “ not true!!! All you have to do is roll the outer wheel housing out at the top a 1/8 to 1/4 “ and keep the bottom in the same place. This will let the tire have room and will make the car look better from the rear with the quarters out about 1/4" more on each side. Just like his car was done…
