72 Cutlass - Help needed to size cheap roller rims for resto!
Hey Guys,
I am in the process of doing a frame off on my families 1972 Cutlass S. I live in Lincoln,NE which also happens to be the home of Speedway Motors. They were nice enough to use my frame to prototype their new abody pro-touring kit but I am running into a problem that I'm sure someone here could help with.
We have upgraded to Speedways GForce drop spindles and 12.88in dia. Wilwoods. Can anyone tell me what size of wheel I would need to clear these calipers and still be able to test fit the body correctly when it is ready to go back on the frame? They have 17s on now and I know they clear but they need them and I want to make sure whatever I pick up is easy to resell as I plan to have custom wheels cut once everything is fully mocked up.
Added some pics...front looks low because shocks are a PITA to install without some weight in the front.
Thanks!
