Just bought a Chevy Nova and looking to put a 15 x 12 " rim on the back.
I plan on making this a street strip car. I work from home so Its not a daily driver. I will be taking it to the track at times.
I'm thinking of going with a 15 x 3 1/2 or a 15 x 5 in the front and 15 x 12 or a 15 x 15 for the back
I have seen mini tub kits and leaf spring relocation for the 15 x 12 size rims, but it doesn't list tire size.
My questions, I'm thinking of going with 15 x 5 size in front, what rear spacing and bolt circle do I need http://www.jegs.com/p/Weld+Racing/746346/10002/-1
I'm thinking of going with 15 x 12 size in back, what rear spacing and bolt circle do I need to make the rear tires tuck under the quarter panels. Would this kit allow these size tires http://www.detroitspeed.com/productpages/indproduct/rearsuspensionprod/mini_tub_prod.htm
And my final questions what size tire on the rims should I go with, Im thinking of either MT Sportmans or Hoosier
http://www.jegs.com/i/Hoosier/522/19300PS/10002/-1
I want the car to be lifted in the back a little so whats the tallest size tire I can fit unter it, I see them listing numbers like 29 / 29.5 / 30 / 31 / 32.
Anyone with suggestions please comment, I'm up for any ideas that would help my project out.
