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

From one A-body to another I'd recommend Rushforths as well.

All great wheels guys! It will be a hard decision!

All great wheels guys! It will be a hard decision!

It'll make you sick...if you let it and you'll never decide.

Take my advice from someone who's bought a set or three before...narrow it down to 2 wheels...maybe 3...and whittle it down from there.
Use every tool available to you to see how they'll look on your car and your stance.

Use the Benjamin Franklin close on each wheel,what you like and what you don't.Write it all down so you can compare notes...one side the pros and the other the cons.

Eventually,you'll figure out which one is right...

Thanks Jon! I really appreciate it!

[Windycity1]

Rushforths are sweet but too rich for my blood cost wise.

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

Does the car sit pretty low up front?

[Texas 1972 Velle]

It will, 2.5 inch drop!

[1badchevelle]

Val, did you pick a wheel? We need pics a lot of pics and info on your build.

[USAZR1]

It will, 2.5 inch drop!

A 17x9 or an 18x9 front wheel and 275 tire will fit that car like a glove. On that width,you will need 5.25" to 5.5" backspacing.

That is very good advice,John. I'm no rookie when it comes to wheels & tires but even I am awed at the huge selection out there. A lot of my projects have been built around their wheels and tires and I usually don't take as long to make a decision as I am,this time.
I "think" I've decided on the combo for my BH 57 but every time I turn around,I see something that would look great,too.

When it comes to cars,we're truly living in "the good old days".

A little but not too much...


18x9 w/275/35's
18x10 w/305/35's

USAZR1,
No you're no rookie at all Clint when it comes to wheels,you've helped me a bunch in the past with your advise.
