Tire Size question

[DENTGUY]

Having a bit of brain fade trying to figure out tire sizes.
rear wheels are 22x11 and fronts are 20x8.5 or 9

My 56 Belair build. Help me guys thru this simple problem that I've now created into an issue.
Thanks Doug

Doug, what exactly is the question? Do you know what overall diameter you can accommodate given your ride height? I'd start there and then figure out what available tire options you have since you can size things plus or minus to hit the size, performance and budget within a reasonable range of tread widths and profiles. There are some great tire size calculators on the web, but you need to know what you can fit under the car first to use them effectively.

I'll also ad that with a 2" stagger in wheel diameter like that, you'll want to at least have a 2" stagger in tire diameter as well, or your rear side wall height will look shorter than your fronts.

I figured it out. like I had posted a minor brain fade. I can accomodate any size I wish. We are fabbing the frame and already tubbed it to accept them. Sorry guys, next time I'll think through my question a bit better before posting crap. Must have been too much turkey.
