5/6 drop 20X9 backspace?

I've recently just started the buildup on a 1972 C10 my question is I have a 5/6 drop and 20x9 with 4.30 backspace will it work without rubbing? Thanks a lot

Re: 5/6 drop 20X9 backspace?

Welcome to the board. I think your gonna be tight there. Most guys run at least a 5" BS as far as I've seen. Maybe if you go with a narrower 67-68 rear. Sorry I don't have the difinitive answer but I'd expect them to rub with the stock rear.

ttt for ya.

It will be tight. You optimally want 5 or more to tuck them in some. You might get away with it, but there will be rubs on big bumps/dips...
