      My new wheels!

      I figured I'd show off my new wheels that I got last week. Let me know what you think. I still have a few adjustments to make on the suspension to get the stance right. The wheels are Rushforth Super Spokes 19/20"

      Before:


      After:

      Comparison between the 275's that I once thought were wide and the new 305's.

      Nice! Like I always say, wheels and stance are everything and your pics make that point big time! I'm obviously biased but what a difference!

      Thanks for joining the Rushforth family!

      oestek - The wheels are 19X8 with a 5" Backspace and 20X10 with 6" Backspace. The tires are 245/35/19 Nitto NT-555's and 305/35/20 Nitto NT-555R Extreme Drag.

      Thank you everyone else for the compliments. My car really does look completely different. It took me a little while to get over the shock.

      Very nice! How close is your 6" BS on the rears to hitting the inner wheel well? Any messaging required? Mine is 5.5" (18x10 w/305s) and it's REAL close...probably upgrading to 20s with the same tire as you soon.

      On your fronts do you have stock spindles? I had stock spindles with 4.5 BS on a 255 tire (18x8) and now with B-body spindles it hits the fender on the outside. I'm thinking I need to go 5 to 5.3 on the BS to make it work now.

      Great to see another Olds!!
