What wheel offset do I need to properly fit a 15x10 with a 9x30 radial in the rear? I'm looking at some of the black versions of the RC Components "Fusion" wheels...

The SS and Caprice came with 2 axle lengths.
SS are a few mm longer.
No problem fitting 30x9 slicks.
I have rare Centerlines wheels with 3.5 backspacing.
Wagons have even longer axle.

I do have a complete 8.5 rear for sale.
4.56, Moser axles, ARP studs, mini spool.
disk brake to disk brake.
Have a PowerTrak in box.

My bad- I was reading the wrong line when I scrolled right to see the pounds per horsepower.

It is in fact 14.87 pounds per horsepower for the '94-'96 Chevy and Buick LT1 B-wagons, making them natural N cars, which would save me the expense of a roll bar and 2-year driver's harness.

I'm gonna go back and edit my previous posts, to eliminate the incorrect information.

Okay, so the N/SA index is 13.00, and the record is currently 11.99 @108 or so. Sounds like I'm looking at about a 5.57 rear gear for starters...

I really doubt it would want that much. Maybe 5.13.

Billy Nees. I have one of these wagons in stock.
Hmmm. Winter project?

Put 5.13’s in my SS.
Running 28inch tire, locking converter at 98mph.
If I go with a 8inch converter will go to a 30 inch tire.
Turn off the lock up.

N/SA you will be close to 4500lbs.
