Default Gonna Order B/S Street Lites

I have a few questions first.... First of all I want to run a 275 tire in the front, and a 315 in the rear. As far as the rim size for the front goes I want to remain stock in the front. What is the backspacing of the stock front wheels? and what is the width (I am assuming 9")? As far as the rear goes, what width rim would be good? I would rather get a little more "bulge" in the sidewall than have it stretched out.... Also, what backspacing do I need? I want to have as little as possible (in order to run a deeper dish rim), but enough that I don't have any fitment issues.... Oh by the way I will be getting 17's all the way around. I was also wondering where the cheapest place to get them is? I was thinking Speed Inc. but I was wondering if there is someplace cheaper..... Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

check with midwest chassis and performance hey helped me out a ton on them and great prices too. for 275's and 315's you will want the 17x11 and 17x9.5 f body setup. if you have a stock length rear then there is no way you can chage the backspacing and get a bigger lip. It will cause the wheel to stick out. Call Eric@ midwest chassis on monday he will know exactly what backspacing you need front and rear for a stock car.

17x11 is plenty in back, just lower your car so you won't have the 4x4 look like my friend...
