hey Dave,

The set of Works I got from a member on here.. here is the link that had them.

I don't know the back-set specs.

I put them on my stock 67 camaro and had issues with the back-set. they rubbed on the outside fender well and ruined a new tire. Oh.. they rub on the inside as well...

On a 67 and 68 - If your mini-tubbed with a shortened axle..
they work.

I just sold them to a gent with a 1969 camaro.. of which should play nice, since the 69's have a deeper fender well opening to allow the wheel to fit. its like 1/4" off from it working.

I'm looking at purchasing some Rushforth now. Pricing is tolerable.

Thanks for the links and the info. I have a '68 that will be mini tubbed w/ an AME 4 link.

Maybe you can comment on the quality of the rims.
They look great on all 3 '67 1st gens. It's helpfull to see them on a red then white then blue '67.
Thanks again, Dave

overall the wheels were nice. well constructed. finish is good.. lines were clean and well finished with no flaw areas.

I did notice that whoever had them, did have a rubbing issue of the tie rod end to the passenger inner wheel, which scratched/gouged the inside surface. I didn't notice any problem with the stock set up tho. ?
