68 C10 on Rushforth Night Trains

[JayR]

Angelo Vespi's AWESOME C10 built in less than a year by Ambition Road debuted at Columbus last Summer and then came all the way out to SEMA and now it's back home in Florida.

Thanks to Angelo for being a great client and friend and thanks to Tom Seymour for the great photos.

Great looking wheels, and great looking truck!

What are the sizes and finish on those?

[JayR]

Thanks Cliff! Those are 19x10s and 20x12s with the entire wheel done in our Smoked Titanium finish which is a tinted clear and we also gave him the color code to so he could powdercoat all his trim to match.

I have a 67 Chevelle which I am lowering about 2"-2.5" with coil overs on all four corners with all new UMI Performance control arms front and rear. I have a 9" ford rear end with wilwood disca 12" and wilwood discs 13" in front...

I have been contemplating wheels sizes forever...
20's to 19's and then also 18"....I originally had 17x8 on all four with 255/50 tires (27" tall)....

I was trying to keep it around same diameter but in the 20" I think the sidewall is getting to small for the car....19" looks best and 18" can look just a bit small for wheel sizing.

Have you done any 66-67 chevelles you can send me details and pics on?

I was thinking the right combo was 19x8.5 or 9 in front and 19x10 or 10.5 in rear....245/40 fronts and 285/35 rears.

In 20" just drop the fronts from 40 to 35 and rears from 35 to 30 but I still feel thats to thin of sidewall....I dont think I can run a 245/40/20 front and 285/35/20 rear without some clearance issues since I am lowered 2-2.5"

Whats your thouhgts? Of course the 18"s have plently of sidewall and much cheaper selection but they look just a tad bit small in dia for the wheel portion.
