I need wheel recommendation for my land yacht

[2cmorgan]

I trying to decide on a set of wheels and size of tires for my '66 Impala SS I just got back. I don't know if I want to go 17 x 8.5 or 9 up front and 18 x 10 on back or 18's all the way around.
I'm thinking of these wheels:

KWC Forged 027
American Racing Daytona (don't if they come in the size I want)
Centerline Lazer

American Racing The Cobra 427

Good looking car!

My rule of thumb is to fit as much tire as possible in the front as these cars are front heavy. So if you can fit a 265 on a 9" on the front instead of say a 245 on a 8", that would be excellent. A 265/285 combo would probably work great...

I can't say that either 17" or 18" is better in terms of what you are looking to do, but typically 18" has more selection when you go past a 285 width, while 17" is going to be lighter and less expensive.
