Anyone have any ideas on what wheel to use on a 95 Camaro, for a M.T. Drag Radial. Back spacing, width, bolt spacing, brand, type??? Thanks Dave.

What size drag radial? 15" , 16", 17" Used only on the track, or also on the street?
All 4th Gens are 5 bolts on a 4.75" (120.65mm) circle.
For an 8" wide wheel, use a 5.5" to 6.5" backspace
For a 10" wide wheel, use a 7.5" backspace.
For 16" drag radials, just use a set of 16x8 stock/take-off wheels.
For 15" drag radials, you can get 2 different wheels that don't need grinding of the brake calipers... the Centerline Telstar (15x8 5.5" BS only) - relatively inexpensive. Or the Bogart Billet P1 specifically for the 4th Gen, 15x9.5 7.?? BS - but for those you are talking over $300 per wheel.
The alternate is the Weld Pro-Star or Draglite. They make the correct offsets, but the brake calipers need grinding and you may need longer studs.
Tell us the tire size and how you plan to use them.Fred
