My question is without narrowing the rear end and just having a mini tub, what is the biggest tire size I can have on my 1970 nova?

I also want to know if Competition Engineering's leaf spring relocation Kit, moves the leaf spring 2-3 inches inward to fit bigger tires needed.

I want to have a least 11 inch tires without having to narrow the rear end, Is this possible with a stock 12 bolt rear? and if the wheels Can fit what backspacing would be needed to fit 11 inch tire on a stock rear end.

Thanks for helping me out.

255's will fit pretty easily. Some people get 275's in there.

275's easy.
28x12.5 with an 8inch wheel and 5.5 inches backspace....no problem.
Shocks must be moved inboard.
