How big can you go?

Hopefully one of you guys can help me out - Does anyone know if a 16x10 inch rim will fit in the rear of a 1967 Galaxie? I'm looking at these (http://www.etwheels.com/et/fueler.html) for my girl but the 16s start @ 10 inches wide...pretty meaty. I wanted to run 15s on the front and 16s in the rear but am not sure that they'll fit. Any ideas? Thanks a bunch!

not sure with 67's but if you want to be sure pull one of the rear wheels off and do some measurements.

I run a 15 x 8 rim with a 4 1/2 backspacing and thats about it. I have no rubbing issue, but there is not a whole lot of room left. A buddy of mine in running 16 x 7 on his 67
LTD and it looks pretty cool!
