Anyone know where I can get custom sized rally style wheels? Long story short my rear is at least 2" too long for 15x10 wheels with 4" of back spacing. 14" total tire width . If I get 6" backspacing wheels I'll have a half inch clearance to the fender. Not sure if that's enough. Heres some pics with a wheel and tire I borrowed to test the fit. Its 15x10 4"bs . The 4 link is disconnected at the coilovers to drop it down enough to mount the wheel. Bed is full tubbed to fit these wheels. If I can found 15x10 gm rally wheels with 6"bs I'll be golden.

There’s several of these custom wheels online. You shouldn’t need a custom size unless you’re trying to squeeze every millimeter of tire in there.

Don't forget about frame and suspension and brake clearance. You are asking to seat the tires 2" inward to clear the fenders, do you have 3" of space to the frame and suspension, enough room for the brakes to do so from where that tire sits now?

I think I have plenty of room but I plan on double checking before I order anything. I think the 12 bolt was cut down for a tubbed c10 not el camino. My friend that had it and also did the frame work said it was the right length. I should have double checked. Figured it's cheaper to buy large backspaced wheels (if they are available anywhere) rather than pull everything back out, have it shortened and repaint it.

Yep, double checked. It's one thing to go with 17's or 18's and go that wide inside on a shortened rear, it's often quite a different story with 15's as the rims get awful close to brake calipers, emg brake levers etc

Well after searching for 15x10 rallys and 6" backspacing with no luck. Looks like I'm getting the rear cut down to fit a wheel with 4" backspacing this weekend. I'll have to epoxy primer and paint it again after that. Hope to finally have it on the road mid June
