Remember when we were young and this was the look we were going for.

Nobody narrowed rear ends, mini tubbed or had custom offset wheels back then. If you wanted big tires, you jacked it up for clearance. Ask me how I know:)
It was a wonderful era for musclecars. I came into it in the mid 80s. I love the bias ply N50 15 look. Jacked up in the rear. Practical? No. But even as a 16 year old kid I was able to buy them new big tires- Formula 1 Superstocks and some 15x10 Cragar SSTs with air shocks. Ill take the day 2 look any day over the modern slammed to the ground with Dylan Mulvany/Chip Foose oversize pro touring wheels.
