Post your wheel and tire combos.

Not as nice as a lot your cars, but here's my '66 Valiant. I bought a set of 14x4.5" steelies and some Toyo 185/75s to put on them. The tires showed up and I realized they were gonna be way too tall for the fronts. Decided to keep the 13s up front and put a new pair of Uniroyal 155/80s on those. Scored a nice set of dog dish from a fellow boardmember to class things up a bit. Pretty happy with the stance, but I think want to drop the whole car an inch or so.

355/30/19 Just mini-tub your car. I don’t regret doing it. And it gives the car a proper stance and the pro touring look I wanted.

Rear
Mini tub & spring relocate
355/30/19 tires 19x12 rims (50mm offset, but I have a modest narrowed rear. It’s just under stock A body width).
If you look at most 12” or 13” wide rear rims you will find more off the shelf rims will have around a 50mm offset.

Front
275/35/18 tires 18x9 rims 30mm offset
And I have different set I run
285/30/18 tires 18x9 1/2 rims 35mm offset
There are many different combos that fit on the front. It all depends on what your front to rear proportions look like afterwards.

There are a lot of so-called gurus on this site that like to repeat over and over what fit on their car. Just measure your own car and remember there is 25.4mm in an inch when doing your math.

if you need a plan to build a rear end for you car I can give you drawings (stock or tubbed) and even where to weld on things like sway bar brackets.

Personally I was looking at the possibility of running Michelin PS2 345/30-19 on the rear of mine. What front tire size do you have? Never mind... found your older post: 275/35/18; I am planning on that or a 285/35-18. Got to get it running and driving before I spend money on wheels and tires!
