Time to order wheels and tires.

So why would you have the car about done with a rotisserie paint job and assembly and not have rims & tires picked out yet?

because I did not want to do any more body work than necessary. I had nice straight AMD quarters and I was not trying to get the widest tires possible. Even though was on rotisserie it was still done on the cheap. Way more than planned but still on a budget. Never wanted the biggest tires possible, just a cool looking car that drives well.

He doesn't have to cut anything to run the tires he wants to run (245's) if he sets the backspace correctly. Mini-tubs are fine, but unless you're going to put down more than 500 hp its all just for looks and a waste of money anyway.

I am looking for the best combination with stock body lines. I want it to drive and handle well also. I maybe should of posted this when I had it off rotisserie but with work everything is pretty busy so I wanted a good game plan for when it is time to measure and order. There are so many rims and tire combinations it is pretty easy to get overwhelmed. Bad news is car is back on rotisserie cause my buddy needed the lift to work on his 56 Chevy. Next week I hope to have running gear in.
