I have a 68 camaro with a 540 in it and need to know some info. I want to run a 335/35 or 40/17 and need to know if a 11" wheel will be wide enough to put a 335 tire?

Just send me any info. you guys may have.

Thanks,

You can use a 11" - 13" rim with a 335/35/17 per Tire Rack and Michelin.

Question

ok, thanks guys. Thats all i needed to know. I have a connection to get 17x11 wheels for alot cheaper than having to make custom 17x12 or 17x13 wheels. All i have found for 17x12 and 17x13 wheel prices are around $800 per wheel. Anyone found anything cheaper than that for that wide of a wheel?

thanks,
Co-D
