17” wheel ?
I’m planning on upgrading to a 17”x8” wheel with 225x45 front and 245x45 rear tires. I’ve noticed the torque thrust 11
wheel advertised on many sites. It is listed with a -.11mm back space. Will this be ok for my 74. It states it’s for a C3 corvette I have the Van Steel composite rear spring so the swing arms are stock not offset. Thanks. Tom
