I am looking at getting some 15x7s in the back and 15x4s in the front. I have already found and measured what I am going to get. They will stick out a little bit more in the back but not farther than the fender. In the front It really wont matter. Does anyone have this setup? Any input before I pull the trigger? I will still have my snowflakes as backup. I will be running "street" tires on them. I searched and couldn't find anything.

I don't have any pics yet, but i'm putting 15x4 (165r15) and 15x10 (295/50r15 - 5.5" BS) on my 1988 TC. I swapped out the stock disc brake 8.8 rear with a drum brake 8.8 out of a 90 GT i had ( has a fresh trak-lok with extra discs in it and 3.55 gears). They just fit, but had too use a BFH on the inner wheels wells and rolled the lip reallt tight, but they fit.

Personally I don't think these cars were made to look like drag cars. I doubt you'll be making any 50 mph turns on an on ramp that advises 25mph with 4 in front tires.
My friend had a 51 chev, all original and put a set of large diameter short wall tires on it. It looked like shit to me. He loved it.
Just realized you already ordered them. Hope you are happy with the looks.
