    Yes the wheel wells are huge in the 73-77 Century/Regals... I used to run a 325/50R15 on the rear and 255/50R15 on the front of my 76 Century... I don't remember the backspace that the rim had though. Take one of the rear wheels off and try it on the front. It it rubs it will likely be on the inside.
