Rendering finally done!!!

Right now I have Summitomo 315/35/17's out back which are 25.7" tall I think. That was fine because when I had a 10 bolt under the car I had around 3" travel. When I put the 12 bolt under it, I lost 1/2 inch due to larger axle tube. I am "C" notching the rails to give me 4" of absolute travel at ride height with tire even with wheel well opening. I am also modifing the outer wheel house for clearance as well.



To gain anymore travel without sacrificing stance, I need to go to a taller wheel. The 345/35/18 or 40 series I forget, is 27.1 tall and I still maintain sidewall for some comfort and drivability. Anything bigger wheel on a 67 or 68 doesn't look right to me. That would give me roughly another 3/4" of susupension travel or I could tuck the tire some. If I tuck it then I run a chance of running out of fender well clearance before suspension travel! Oh the decisions!
