...a chevelle with 17x7" front rims with 4" BS, 17x8" rear rims with 4.75" BS?

How did they fit? In too much or sticking out too much?

These will be for a 72 Chevelle.

Let me know please!

I have 17x7 4 inch backspace front and 17x8's 4.75 backspace with 275/50/17, fit fine, huge tire in the rear required a little bit of fender lip trimming
