Bob were did you get the Carbon FIbre Shifter in the G?
Some cars with 22" doesnt look that bad imo especially Sick fish when they had it at 4" of the ground it looked awsome
Alloway is running 20 or 22" on the back of the Challenger?

Talk about being late at the party!!!!

I just read that thread.....I have a set of Pirelli P-Zero Assimetrico in 345-25-20 in the garage under my (in project) 69 right now...And they are up for sale now!!!!!

Man that thing sits right! Too bad they didn't stay there.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE STANCE AND THE LOOK :hail:

(Had to say it even this late)

I think it looks beautiful, along with the chevelle..

DONKs are cool! Wait--what?
 

I agree with the general consensus here, which seems to be that rims look good if you can make them fit with a normal stance on the car. The 22's shown are a little bigger than I would personally do, but they look like they fit at least. If you have to destroy your ride's suspension geometry to fit wheels, you are going way too big IMHO.

sweet ride, this is my 69 convertable with 20x9 front and 22x13 rear intro wheels, with a 7 inch lip, mini tubed in the back.

Cam69!

We need to talk!!!!

I just sold my 69 project on wednesday and got home last night with a new project....a 63 000 miles, stored since 82, 1 paint job, 1 owner (protecto plate, original b-o sale etc) Survivor, Azure turquoise convertible 69 Camaro!

I sold the coupe and the jig it was on (with all the new sheetmetal i had) to a friend when i learned about the 'vert ( in about a heartbeat) and the 'vert is still on the trailer as we speak.

I kept my 345 25 20, 12 bolt, LS1, ETC...All the PT parts i had stacked up....

Now i was beginning to wonder if a convertible can accomodate that much rubber? I read somewhere that because of the top rack you we're somewhat limited....Doesn't look like you are!

Car looks awesome! Feel free to pm me, i'd really like to get some more pics of your car.

You'll all can see my new project in my new page soon if you'd like, i would appreciate comments on the deal i got.

Lead :bow:

now that the body work is already done, I wouldn't suggest this. But in order to make those wheels flow with the car, I would have suggested opening the wheel openings front and back, or if you wanted to move the wheels out, just back. But not now since that very nice looking paint and body work has already been done. Stepping down to 20s will give you a better ride in addition to making it look a little better, plus Deep dishes on that would really set it off. Right now it looks too big for the wheel openings.

Either way, great ride.

i will pm you later todayi have pics o the whole build sins the begining :thumbsup:

i think the 20-22 would be the most on many cars out there

i also like stuff like this, knowing its a show truck i understand he's trying to do something not to many ppl are doing. thats the way you win at shows, but if this was just for daily driving it is way over kill.

Size of Back Tires--Cam69
 

Cam69

Car looks very nice!!! Just wondering what the size, manufacturer and cost is of the your back tires? The largest size tire for 22" wheels that i've found has been a 315/30R22 by Yokohama.

thanks, its a 335-25-22 perreli, cost between 450-500 dollars

Thats my buddy and fellow Car/truck club member Gil from Albany, GA. Truck is truely a work of art. Truck has a full frame, tilt bed, and lots of cool sheetmetal work. Truck is laying rocker panels on 24x10 wheels on all four corners, keep in mind its all so a s-10, just not supposed to fit!

well please tell your freind he did an awesome job, very tastfull.....

!!!
 

Cam69,

Still lookin at your car....Gotta ask, why did you put custom rails in it? Didn't those tires fit in the stock style wheelhouses? (minitubbed of course)

'Love Pirelli huh? They make good sizes, i have assimetrico's in 345 25 20's and they are the only company makin those, they also make a killer 355 25 20's. When you want width...PIRELLI!

I'm debating if i should cut mine up (the 'vert) or not....I could do 285's on a 20 x 10 right now and call it done......but it would be hard when i know what a '345 looks like under it (my coupe).

I just tought you had mini tubbed your car and did it the simple way....I already have one thats in pieces and i bought the vert to enjoy while i build it as i figured with my life so full i don't have time to work on the car as much as i'd need to to get it out before it out of date stylewise... (even tough i already talked about taking the 'vert apart to blast the underside "just to make it clean".... you know where that'll get me right...)

Thanks for the pics! Now i'll have to measure carefully i guess...I'm looking at DSE's Q-Link and mini tubs for a clean job i could do over the winter.

Car looks great!
