Alston subframe

[FJB2069]

ANyone running a Chris ALston sub frame on a 69 with 9" wide rims? What tire are you running? and how are the handling characteristics of the frame?

I am running one, but I think my wheels are only 8" wide. I'm using stock '91 Camaro wheels for the moment running 245-45ZR16 tires.

It drives pretty good. Feels a lot better than my stock frame did with rebuilt bushings and tie-rod ends. I haven't had it on a track, but for driving on my curvy country road it does ok. It does seem to have a little bump steer now and then though.

8" wide rim, 245x35x17's here...
Unfortunately I wasn't directly above the frame on these shots, look at the side of the frame to understand the perspective. In other words there's a little more space at the rear of the tire than it appears from this angle.
