rear wheel space

[rickli]

Hello, I have a 65 Skylark with 15X8 Buick rally wheels. I would like to upgrade to a 17X8 front and a 17X10 rear wheel and tire. Is there enough clearance for a 10" wheel in the rear and what back spacing should I get? Thank you for your input

I don't mean to hijack your post.. I also have a 65 skylark and am going with 15's. What size tires do you have on your 65 and did you have to alter anything for fit? Any rubbing? There was somebody here that I think had 17's or 18's on a 65 but I don't remember the width of the rim. I think they were ARE TT2's
