335s and leaf springs?????

[aany001]

I was wondering on my 69 camaro if 335 30 18s on 18x12 wheels would fit with DSE mini tub kit and leaf springs.I will be shortening my diff 2.5" per side cause the wheels only have 5.5" of backspacing.thanks in advance.

Yep, they will fit. :thumbsup: Not sure about the backspacing though. I'd recommend buying the wheels and tires, mocking it up, then measuring for the correct width rear end.

Yup, it is tight but they clear.

hey Frank its Steve from Canada.........thanks for helping me out with ordering the stainless bolt kit.So I should be ok with these wheels???? I will also be rolling my quarter lips and installing round bar so in case of contact it will be a nice smooth edge.
thanks guys

yes, definitely fits.

We will have to work together closely on back spacing and rear dimensions. Should not be a problem, we do just a few mini tub Camaro's!

I just finished mini tubing my 69 with the DSE kit and I have exactly the same size rims. I have 18x12 Budniks with 5.5bs and everything fit. I ended up with about 3/4 clearance all the way around. I also just got a new Moser rearend, which I ordered 55 1/4 wheel to wheel and it fit prefect. The car is still not together, but I have mocked everything up. I also trimmed my wheel well lips a little to give me a little more room. I attached a couple of pictures showing the mockup.
