Check out coyswheel.com

They make nice wheels for classics. And they are not super expensive. I had a set of grey C-5's on my 91 Z28 and they looked bad ***. 18x8 front and 18x9.5 rear.

is it possible to fit a 17x10 rim in the back. On a 67 camaro, if the inner fender well is moved?

Not sure about that. 17x9.5 or 18x9.5 is the biggest I've seen without a tub.

On a 9.5" wide wheel, you are going to want 5.5" bs. On a 9" wheel you'll want 5.25" bs.

I know this probably doesn't help at all, since you are trying to get away from the TT's, but here is my '67 on 18" Foose Legends:

Post up a picture of you car and some wheels you're looking at and I'll photoshop some on for you if you want.
