Welcome to the Forum and congratulations on your '64!
dahogan has steered you the correct direction for the best answers on this. You'll find lots of good info on the C2s there.

Yes, by all means, welcome to the Corvette Forum. 
If you can find a set of '68 Corvette Rally wheels, AG code, 15"X7", backspacing of 3-3/4", these should work on your car. If you know someone with a '68 (and original wheels, many were early on swapped for 15"X8" rally's) see if you can borrow one and see how it clears.
You'll find some additional discussion in this thread as well.

Good luck... GUSTO

I have a set of 69 Z/28 15x7 wheels mocked up on my '64 and they do NOT clear in the rear. I think they are 4 1/2" backspace so you need the corvette offset mentioned above.
