So here's a little teaser for ya on how those will look on your Impala. I got the Boyd's version of the same wheels on mine. These are only 17x7 and 18x9 though. (sorry for the crappy pics, I didn't get a good digital camera for Christmas :( )

Thanx Speedy...Actually I just picked it up this week. All the suspension was already rebuilt, and power disc brakes added. All I did so far was to put the wheels on it. Wheels are Boyds Rally's, 17x7 4"BS (5" may have been better) and 18x9 4.5" BS. Its got dropped spindles AND cut springs on the front. Unfortunatley its too low and the tires rub when making even shallow turns. I'm gonna have to put new springs in it to bring it back up just a tad. I'll need new springs anyway 'cause I'm putting in an LS1/4L60E in place of the inline 6 and powerglide. The car actually looks better in the pics than it really is, but I'm leavin' the dings and scratches just as they are (oh, I am getting new front fenders though). After I get the LS/4L package installed and running, it will get a full Air Ride system. Other than that, no more plans except drive the snot out of it :thumbsup:

They will make any size up to 16" wide. But they are special order items. Here is the Pentia Style Wheel they made in 20x16 for us. $$ wasn't too bad considering.
