what size are the wheels?

[70Blwnova]

Front is 225/40/18

Rear is 255/35/20

Not sure on exact wheel specs since they were on there when I bought the car. Coys Wheels - fairly inexpensive considering.

so i would say the car is tubbed, cause the biggest i can fit on mine is 17's and i thought that mine looked good until i saw yours

Negative on the tubbed - I wish! I think the tire widths are fairly conservative and there's room for more in the back without moving the shocks - I've heard on this forum that 275 on the rear is possible. It doesn't sit real low right now so the rears aren't tucked in the fenders but I can't see the top of the tire - I see all the wheel though. Hotchkis leaf springs on the way - I hope it doesn't drop too much because I really like the stance now - maybe my old springs have enough sag in them now that it will be the same after I install.

Thanks for your comments..
