Front drag wheel BS question

What is the most backspacing you can run on a stock 4th gen F body? I can pick up a set of draglite front runners for a decent price but they're off of a 1st gen camaro. He's unsure of the back spacing, and wasnt around to measure them.

I did some research and it looks like most 1st gens cleared good with around 2-2 1/4"

Or does anyone have a set of front draglites for cheap lol

Thanks
Austin

you dont have many options. with a 3.5" wide wheel most have only 1.75" backspace. you get into a more expensive wheel and you can get a 2.25" bs.

Let us know how it works out.
