18" foose ledgend wheels

[408-stroker-stang 10]

I am thinking about putting some 18" foose ledgend wheels on my 69 coupe. I was wondering if any one has 18" wheels on their 69 and does it make it ride any different? Also I am thinking about trying to put a 10" tire on a 9" wheel in the rear and wondering if anyone knows the back spacing that would work off hand?

thanks

Tirerack.com among others has a spec chart which shows wheel width and recommended tire sizes.

Grendi has them on his car:

10" tire?

i think 285/35R18 should work as well.

it does make the ride different, if you had 14" wheels before.

how different is the ride?

It will make the ride a lot firmer. This of you larger sidewall tires as big air bags you are riding on. when you move to a low pro 18 it will feel like you are riding on the rims at first until you get used to it. Especially if you go with the 35 series tire.
