Caprice/Roadmaster Wagon help

im buying some 8" wide wheels. anyone know the back spacing i need to get so i can tuck? i think these wheels have a 4" backspacing.

much appreciated

robbie... mine are 8" wide with a 5" backspacing and they are tuckin like a motorhome... theres at least 2.5" before even gettin close to the fender.. when the car had 22's they were 10" wide and still tucked... my guess is that youre not going to have a problem tuckin' no matter what you get.

sweet, thanx Jim

contrary to what you may think the wagons have the widest rear ends. the narrowest is the caprice 9c1 cop car rearend. and it also has disc brakes.so are you sayin a wagon with a 8" wide wheel with a 4" backspace wont tuck?

Wagons have plenty of room in the back!! I had a 20x9.5 on the back with a 5.5" BS( which is the same on the outside as that 8 w/4" BS) and they tucked plenty hard, still had room on the outside, and I ran a 20x8 w/5.5" on the front. I'm not real sure that 4" will tuck in the front because mine was static. It should though...

thanx kyle

Robbie i thought i told u, i measured it and 4" backspacing will be fine man. That thing has a ton of room between hub and fender edge bro!!!!!

Heres the old Heap, Man I miss this thing!! It Looks like there is some room in the front.

fawkin clean bro

no shit, makes me want to trade my caprice for a wagon.
