Vintage Trans Am

[givrhell]

Does anyone have information on wheel and tire sizes ran on trans am cars that raced
in the late 60's through the 70's?

a lot of them ran minilite wheels 15x8 with goodyear blue streak G7 tires. 6.00-15 in front 7.00-15 on the rears.

Minilites came along in 69. Previously, they used torq thrusts.

That is correct.
Teams used a bunch of magnesium AR 200S wheels too but they kept breaking out the centers.
That's what pushed Penske to find the strongest wheel possible...the Minilight.

if you want the minilite look but larger than 15" wheel, check these out: http://www.team3wheels.com/ac/

those team 3 wheels are bada**. They look like the wheels George Poteet had made for his 69 firebird being built.

They are the same wheel. Scott from Team III had the wheels made for him...and I have a set to! :)

If you need wheels like the mini lite but 17" or larger, look at NewGen wheels
