Hey guys,
Always hate to resurrect a really old thread but I couldn't resist as I'm currently in the market for new rims and tires.
Please post those pics of what you're running as well as specs! Also if you're lowered would be great if you could mention how much lower.
Thanks in advance

Here is another picture from the rear. 22" Boyd's on rear with 20" up front. Truck has front clip suspension from 91' dodge. I think ended up lowering 6-8" to get the rear "stuffed" and fill the front up. Ended up with a good combination and rake to it.

My lowered '68, with 15" x 7" front and rear. I, too, am no fan of the "donk" wheels...
Although, I may end up going kicking and screaming to 17" all around, just to eliminate the scrub line problem.

If that happens, these slotted wheels will likely go on my '66 Coronet 500.
