I have a 1970 Ford Torino GT and looking to install a set of ARE TTII's. Can I fit a 17x7F and 17x8R size on this car? I do not know the offsets but Newstalgia wheel quoted me $975 for the set shipped with everything.

Any suggestions on this size? Can I go wider?

I would think 17x8's would easily fit that car,,maybe even wider on the rear. Zero offset on a 17x8 is approximately 4.5" backspace and would be a good place to start measuring your car.

Yes, you can go at least as wide as what's being put on 67 - 70 Mustangs. The Torino came with 7 inch wide magnums just like the Boss stangs.

You should be able to put an 8 on the front and even larger on the rear.
