What size and what brand of slicks are you guys using. Going for the day 2 look on my 70 Chevelle convertible. 15x4 1/2 cragar ss up front. Thinking 15x8 or 10 steelies in the rear. Thanks for any help.

I'm running 15X8 Cragars with a 4.25 backspace. The tires are M/T ET Streets 28X11.5.
If you want to run slicks, go with a 29" tall tire on a 8" wheel with a 4.5" back spacing or a 30" tire on a 10" wheel with a 5.5" back spacing.
If you go with a 10" wheel, you rearend, frame and body has to perfectly centered.
Don't use Hoosiers as they won't look Day 2, run M/T.
