I had one Hoosier 30x9 radial mounted on my spare Weld wheel. It fit on one side, but not the other. When we replaced the rear end, we had to move the center pin locating hole to square up the rear in my car.
I now have the 29x9 bias Hoosier on mine with a 15x8 wheel with 4.75 backspace (.25 spacer).

x2 We had to also move the rear end locating holes on our '67 Camaro, and also "massage' the inner wheel wells where they are closest to the section width of the tire. Our outer wheelwell lips are stock, not rolled, so it was very tight everywhere, but we do run the 30x9 Hoosier radials and a 5.5" backspaced 15x10" rim with a small spacer. Pretty close at the front too, but seems to not rub with the radials. I would also not suggest this size in a bias tire due to growth, just my 2 cents....
