Front Wheels

I have a 87 Camaro & put the Wilwood front brakes on.

Will the 1.75 or 2.25 backspace Work ????? Without any mods.

The Wheels would be the Weld Pro Star or The M/T wheels.

Thx

If you car sits low in the front you might want to use the 2 1/4 back space with a 27" tire. My Gen 3 Camaro sits low and has the 15 x 4 Draglight with the 2 1/4 back space & 28" tires. The 28" tire will hit the inside when turning hard to L or R and top after a wheel stand. I'm changing to a 27" tall tire with the same size & off set rim.
