      Budnik Ice

      A phone call away from ordering asset of Budnik Ice wheels. I have a 70 Chevelle Cranberry Red with black stripes. Wheels will be 18's. Car is lowered to a nice aggressive stance but not dragging the ground. Trying to decide on fully polished, brushed center and polished lip or titanium center with polished lip. Would anyone have pics of any of these combos? Picking wheels is agonizing!! To me the color of the car has so much to do with what wheel color combo looks right.

      Choosing wheels should be fun, Pat. I think I would order your brake system and suspension parts first, then relax and start over with the wheels.
      Secondly, look at other wheel manufacturers besides just Budnik.

      Thanks, I hope so. Wheel choice is always so difficult! Like 72RS, ive been searching for pictures everywhere with them installed and coming up short.

      I would look into a 10.5 at the very minimum for 315's 18x11 would be ideal though if you are into the full potential of the tire width and gaining the maximum amount of grip.

      I agree. 18x11's with 6.25" backspace (+6 offset) with 315's will make a great combo, on the rear. 18x9's w/275/35/18's on the front.

      BTW, Pat ordered some Bonspeeds for his 70.
