      Tiger Sunbeam Wheel Suggestions/Help

      I am building a '66 Tiger Sunbeam and need some help/suggestions for the wheel/tire combo. The car has the stock frontend and a slightly narrowed 8" rearend. The owner likes the Cobra wheel look and is considering a 15" Wheel but I am leaning toward a 17" like the American Racing Shelby Cobra Wheel. The problem I have is the Front Track Width. The absolute maximum width would be 7" but it will require a 1.5" positive offset. Otherwise the tires will be wider than the fenders. The rear would be 8" with a 1" positive offset. With all of the experienced people on this sight I thought I would see what you could come up with.
      One other thing. The owner would prefer NOT to spend a fortune, an upper mid priced wheel would be an option. Thanks Jim

      Car is a resto mod - 302ci, T5, 8"
