Chevelle went for paint finally! Help me pick the right wheels.

[Texas 1972 Velle]

Attachment 30967 Hi guys! The car will be House of Kolors Black. I don't know what kind of wheels to go with. What do you guys think would look good? The car will be lowered 2.5 in the front and 1.5 in the back. Thanks Val

Rushforths!

Nice! They ran across my mind.

5 spoke or multi-spoke? classic or contempory? 1, 2, or 3 piece? price range?

[Texas 1972 Velle]

2.500 - 3k. I like the multi spoke idea also! 1 piece.

[Texas 1972 Velle]

18x10 in the rear is what i hope to do. 18x8 up front. Something I can put my 315s on!

[FirstGenZq8]

check the link in my sig, i put in hot links to multiple manufacturers in post #1 and #2. also click here: https://www.pro-touring.com/forum/sh...ad.php?t=55600

only recommendation i do have is to buy from a trusted website, and, if possible, from one of the vendors on this forum.

[FirstGenZq8]

if you're wanting a 1 piece for $3K, the only monoblock wheels in that range are from CCW. www.ccwheel.com

many consider monoblock wheels to be the strongest. if they truly are, they're probably not much stronger than other wheels made of T-6061.

when you say you want a 1 piece wheel, i'm pretty sure you're wanting a 2 piece welded wheel. an example is the rushforth rated X listed above. although i believe you can now order rushforth wheels in 3 piece. definitely contact driverzinc for the rundown on that development.

This is what I want to end up with. (Rusforth Rated x brushed.)

If any of the Intro or ID Luxury wheels are something you're interested in just let me know and I can help you out. We can do a lot of different finishes on our wheels.

Hey Fabian! Your car is going to look killer. I will let u know Dustin.

[JayR]

Rushforths!

x2! We'd love to have a set on your Chevelle and can make it look just like the Chevelle within your budget. Give us a call!

Here's an A-Body with a similar stance to yours and a set of our wheels

[DriverzInc]

Yup, Chevelles are an easy fit, and you can get a nice wide tire in the rear. The red one above that Jason posted, we set up with a 10" rear wheel, and we can even go as wide as a 9" wheel up front, and a 275/wide tire.



Let us know if we can help, we ship wheel and tire sets mounted and balanced ready for you to bolt on to make it easy.

Are you sure a 19 x 9" with a 275 tire fits up front? This is what I was hoping to run but was told it would not fit

Will fit.
I run a 18x9 and a 275/35 tire with no issues...set up by Jon from Driverzinc as well

[bonspeedbrad]

Hey check out these three suggestions from our styles at bonspeed.

The bonspeed Jag-X in brushed center

The JAG-X in Black center.

[bonspeedbrad]

The bonspeed "Atom-bomb" is also a great wheel on the Chevelle.

I have an idea, how about posting some of those pics so us guys who are looking for that certain look can get an idea of how different types of wheels look/fit. I've been in a headspin trying to decide on the right wheel/tire combo for my 69 Chevelle. Maybe the pics can be sorted by model for ease of navigation. Suggestions?

I think I might get blasted on this, so consider I'm new here. But, love the SS wheels that came on the 1970 Chevelle's. The have 2 colors, chrome with the black inside. I like the ones that are some what similar, that are posted above. What ever you decide, I think you should go with a 2 color wheel.
