Default Please help me decide on new wheels (67 camaro)

Getting things dialed in on my 67 camaro and it’s time to get rid of the rallye wheels in favor of something that will clear the bigger brakes that I have planned in the future. I want to run 18x9.5’s and 18x8’s I like everything from the weld rts to the vintage wheels work v40’s open to any suggestion. I’d even be open to a used set. Just wanna keep the price under 2500 for the set. Thanks in advance.

You should be able to find what you're looking for, with that budget.

I was just looking for different recommendations, maybe something I haven’t seen before.

I understand. With your budget, the choices will probably be mostly traditional fare, though. Any particular style you really like, retro/vintage or contemporary? Those V40's you mentioned never seem to go out of style.

Look at Budnik. They make some nice wheels that are in the same price range as Weld RTSs. I had Budnik Cobalts on mine, which I really liked.

Go with 8s in the front (4.75bs) and 9s in the back (5.25bs). 9.5 are good on 69s, hit or miss on a 67/8.
