I recently purchased CPP's 'Grand-slam' kit for my 1965 Chevy 1/2 ton, SWB, C10. I decided to keep it stock height, w/ 6 lugs, keep my rear drum brakes and upgrade to front disc and go with the power booster. I am doing a frame up restro and got all the suspension and brakes on (without much instruction guidance from CPP)and although CPP warns that factory front drum wheels may not fit, I can tell you they don't.
Anyway...I tried the washer/spacer thing, just so I could move the chassis around my yard, but that was too risky. So I read more posts and got more confused as to what could work. I want to put smoothies on 'er and someone mentioned that Wheel Vintgues 15x6" would fit, but they didn't say how much clearance was needed for the backspace. My current pattern is 15" x 6", 5.5 blot circle, with the new front center hub hole at 3" and rear at 3.5". Anyone have any ideas of what will work? Thanks, Janine
