In this video I tell you about the g body wheel fitment, and tire sizes used on my g body. Wheel fitment is always asked about in the g body community. Another thing that eveyone asks about is what's the widest tire you can fit on a g body. Figuring out wheel fitment can take some time, but if someone gives you the specs all you have to do is order up if you like the setup. I hope this video helps someone out there that likes this look. I really like my Michelin tires ‪@MichelinGlobal‬ ‪@michelinman‬ . Thanks for watching @CutlassVibes .#tires #wheels #gbody

FINALLY! some one revealed the Rims specs to accomplish this thanks man!!

@CutlassVibes Год назад

Hey I appreciate that....I wanted to help someone out if I could. I know when I was looking for this info I was having trouble because nobody really was giving all the info. I decided to make a video with ALL the info needed to accomplish this look if you liked it. Thanks for watching.

@shermanelliott5730 Год назад

Thank you for this video, I have 1987 REGAL LTD 275/40/17 rear and 245 /40/17 8 inches wheels I dropped the car 2 inches on all four corners, so with your set up I'm going try rear tires in the front and see how they work out in that case I go 10 inches wide into the back with a 305 without notching the frame, thanks for sharing with us your video.

@CutlassVibes Год назад

That sounds like a good plan, I hope it works out great. Feel free to email me some pictures when you do that. My email is cutlassvibes@yahoo.com Thanks for watching!

I really appreciate your comment, and I'm glad it helped out! Thanks for watching Cutlass Vibes.

@MysterD515 4 месяца назад

It looks like you went with Factory backspacing which is very important for correct suspension geometry.

@CutlassVibes 4 месяца назад

I haven't had any issues with suspension or anything, so I am glad this setup has worked well for me. Thanks for watching Cutlass Vibes.

@Investigate4Truth Год назад

Nice ride brother. I've done many G-Body's so I was hoping to give you a little info. The cracks on your tires are from impact with the fender. The soft compound will stretch and tear when the weight of the car impacts the rotating tire. Harder compound tires will cut but they won't tear. I also had a mustang with same issue so I've experienced this on 5 separate cars.

@CutlassVibes Год назад

Hey brother I sure do appreciate the info. Thanks for the explanation I'm always open to learning and listening to what others have experienced. Thank you for watching.

Thank you very much! You can get these spoilers on ebay, also can get from mikesmontes.com. hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

Great video, what brakes are you running in the rear.

@CutlassVibes Год назад

Thank you very much! I am running the 11" Disc Brakes w/Park Brake that I ordered with the rear end from Quick Performance.

@johnjames3504 Год назад

I don't get the backspacing differences. I fit 17x9 on 275/40's on all 4 corners. Came with 4.5" backspacing and had to run a half inch spacer. Love your ride man.

@CutlassVibes Год назад

I bet yours is a cool setup as well...I wanted a certain look and I take trips on my car occasionally, so I didn't want to run spacers at all. Like for example your 4.5" backspacing in the rear plus your 1/2" spacer equals the 5" backspacing I have with no spacer at all. I'm glad you love the ride sir I appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment.

@matts1166 9 месяцев назад

in my 87 Monte SS I'm running 295/50R15 on the rear on a 10 inch wide rim, 4.5 backspacing with 5mm spacer. Fit's in the wheel well, no rubbing.

@CutlassVibes 9 месяцев назад

Sounds like a nice setup as well. Thank you for sharing this information.

@futten3230 9 месяцев назад

might wanna consider getting those welds redone on the frame notch because damn those are some booger welds theres a reason people use kits because the piece that replaces the removed part is thicker then OE steel to retain some strength in the fram

@CutlassVibes 9 месяцев назад

I had a well known local welder do it for me, but I can always have another welder take a look and make sure it's good. Thank you for the comment I appreciate it.

@Chase-jc7rx 8 месяцев назад

I just got an 81 monte carlo and was wondering what the widest you can go on the front is? I want to do 10in wide basset or arrow race wheels on all 4 corners but i don't know if 10 will fit the front so any ideas? 10.5in fit the rear because my fathers Oldsmobile has 10.5 drag slicks on the back. So i know i have room on the back.

@CutlassVibes 8 месяцев назад

Oh nice....well I have 9in with 4.5 backspace in the front with a 275 tire and on big dips it hits just a tad bit. Not sure if a 10 would work but please let me know if you find out. That would be a nice setup! Thanks for watching Cutlass Vibes.

@dboy3535 Год назад

Hey I love the video. I have a 84 Monte Carlo ls swap. whats the brand name of those rims ? I’m looking to copy what you did.

@CutlassVibes Год назад

Hey I appreciate that... your Monte Carlo would look awesome with this setup. These are the Rushforth wheels Rated X. Do you have any pictures of the car? If you do, feel free to send them to my email I'd love to check them out. cutlassvibes@yahoo.com Thanks for watching!

Can you go full lock with the 9 inches up front or do you rub?

@CutlassVibes Год назад

I can go full lock and it's perfect! This set up doesn't rub front or back. Thanks for watching!

Yes it's a quick performance 9 inch.

@jimblu86 6 месяцев назад

Is your 9" rear axle the same width as stock?

@CutlassVibes 6 месяцев назад

Yes it is the same width as stock. Quick Performance has one for Gbody which is what I ordered. Thanks for watching Cutlass Vibes.

@Bacongaming406 14 дней назад

Would 9.25 backspace on the front work as well?

@Bacongaming406 14 дней назад

Sorry. I mean rims are 18X 9.25

@CutlassVibes 14 дней назад

Oh ok I was about to say that sounds like a lot of backspace. I'm sure that it's really an 18 X 9 just might not measure exactly what they say. It will work...every once in a while when I hit a big dip my tire touches just a little bitty bit. Maybe going 1 size less wide would be perfect just so it doesn't touch any at all.

@carlostorres-alicea4108 3 месяца назад

Did you have to notch it in the front too?

@CutlassVibes 3 месяца назад

No I didn't do anything to the front. Thanks for watching Cutlass Vibes.

@sincityrick8735 Год назад

Did get a narrower rear end ? Make video about the build of your shop I want to get one done

@CutlassVibes Год назад

The stock rear end will work with this setup. I had the stock rear end on this car up until a few months back. Here's the link to the video where I talk about the shop if you'd like to watch it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-II94FdW1jRI.html Thank you very much for watching.

Doesn’t the 275 in the front rub when u turn

@CutlassVibes 6 месяцев назад

Mine works great! Might be depending on backspacing....what wheel setup are you running?

@1tonystunts 7 месяцев назад

Will the 18x10 inch rear wheels fit with the stock 7.5 10 bolt?

@CutlassVibes 7 месяцев назад

Yes they will....I had them with my stock 7.5 10 bolt for a while before I upgraded to the 9in. I did have to get the frame notched though before they fit. Which I explain in the video. Thanks for watching Cutlass Vibes.

@1tonystunts 7 месяцев назад

@@CutlassVibes you think I’d be pushing it with 4.5 inch backspacing in the rear? I know you said you’re running I’m trying to get as big as lip as I can lol

I honestly think it might be pushing it with a 10 inches, but it might work heck who knows lol.

@1tonystunts mine is a tight fit as is though just thought I'd let you know....I had to roll that lip for my setup to fit in there.

@ceneb3731 Год назад

Did you change the rear-end measurements

@CutlassVibes Год назад

No sir...measurements are same as the stock rear end. In fact I had these wheels on my stock rear end for a couple of years before I went with this 9 in. Thanks for watching!

@ceneb3731 Год назад

I want to go 22" inch Irocs with a little lift and rolled fenders if needed..I don't want to shorten the rear or modify the frame

@ceneb3731 Год назад

What's the widest I can go with a stock setup

@CutlassVibes Год назад

@Charles Hayes I won't be much help with this question, because I have zero experience with 22 inch wheels. All I can tell you is before I bought these custom wheels ... I had non custom American Racing wheels and the widest I could fit was a 275 and it still slightly rubbed when the car twisted a certain way.
