15x10 Wheels on a stock lenth Axel ?

[moparcrazy]

Playing with my "Mini Tubed" 65 plymouth satellite last weekend, to my suprise ! i was able to Tuck a
15x10 steel wheels with a 5 inch back space, and with a 28/11.5/15 tire under the wheel well with plenty of back space left, and about 3/4 inch @ the front outer fender !! WOW i thought this was soooo cool i just had to share this info, i know there's pepole (like my self) who are always wondering what size wheel & tire combo could be ran on these year cars, i still mite shorten the axel to put a wider tire but this is a good starting point for me, anyway hope this post is usefull to someone out there, i know i've got'en plenty of good help from this site, "so hope it helps ! !"

I have in board springs with no mini tubs on my 65 Coronet with stock width axels. I was able to fit 29x10.5W w/6.5" back spacing on 10" rims. I would think with mini tubs I could get another 2" of tread on the ground but 10.5w is the widest tire allowed in NSS racing around here anyway.

Can you give details and pics of the mini tubs? I would like to do the same to my 65 Fury and 65 Belvedere.
