I'm looking at rims now, will 20's fit on the rear of a stock '69 bird? If not, I'll go 18's I suppose.

Not exactly, I only want 20's on the rear, sticking with 18's for the front. So I take it they will fit o.k.?

Is that your car Hammered? Are those really only 20s? They look like a photoshop or they look like 21 or 22s. Damn!

Sorry, no it's not real and I thought it was pretty obvious. Someone on the FGF site did as a joke. I just ordered Boyd Two Tones Friday in 17" myself. I'm not into the look of anything bigger, but I've seen 20s on a '69. I don't see any reason why you can't run 20s and a 255/35 or 275/30.

My '67 bird has a 61" wide stock rear (versus 60") for the Camaro and 59.75" stock front disc track (versus 59" for the Camaro), so be extra careful in measuring your backspacing.
