Guys, I would like to see some pic's of your 17" wheel/tires with the chassisworks clip. Please specify the tire size and back space. Thanks, jf

a 17 x 8 with 4.75 backspace sems to fit good with a 225-40-17

different tire brands, different back spacing combinations and carefull fitting may yield a bigger tire package.

I used Vintage Wheel Works 17 x 8's with 4 1/2" B.S. & Goodyear F1 235/40's.
They fit great with no problems.
Of course I did have to use a 2 X 4 to get them on! ;^)

BB540 and 40 buick, Beautiful cars! Thanks for the pic's. People can tell you what size tire/ wheel they use, but nothing beats seeing them on a car. I still would like to hear from anyone with 62-5 body style. jf

One thing cool about the CW clip is it centers the wheel in the opening. You don't get that rubbing at the front like the stock clip.
