Pro-touring 57 Chevy
Hey fellas, I have a buddy building a 57 Chevy and was looking at wheels, sizing, etc. I don't know much about the trifives but this is what he has and what he wants;
57 Chevy, 210 Bel Air
2" drop in the front
2" drop in the rear
Mini tubed rear
Discs all 4 corners
Wants;
20x10 in the rear w/ 6"bs
19x8 up front with 4.5"bs
Will there be any rubbing issues up front with the 19's or does he need to go to 18's? This is also considering he is not running tiny sidewalls on his tires.
Any comments, questions or concerns would be helpful!!!

The wheel wells in the front on the '57's are pretty tight. We did a 5" back spacing on an 18x7 on this '57. It is lowered about 3-1/2" in the front.

On my 55, I ran a 19x8 up front with a 5" backspace, and it was tight. 2" drop spindles, and drop coils.
20x10 in the back, with a 6" backspace, and the leafs relocated inboard.
