Default 19's on 68's pics anyone?

I'm running 17x13 tillers on my rears w/335x35x17's and have been contemplating 19's to fill wheel well space. Anyone with 68's running 19's and have side pics? Would sure help my decision making to have afew visuals.
Thanks

Hey Lenie check with JayR- he can help you with the right look > he is really a good source on tire sizes also. I talked with him on my '68 Camaro and he rec. 18' front 19" rear to fill things up. I know you could peddle those 17" pretty quick on this site... -Chris

Lenie, a 345/30/19 is an inch taller than what you have right now. It's 27.2" so the side wall will be approx. a 1/2" closer to the fender well opening...but it will also raise the car a half inch as well...a taller tire is a taller tire.

How much are you looking for?

Nice to see the brakes in proportion to the wheels! Where are you guys at and who did all the fab work? I'm just over in Hillsboro!!

Bill Sleuman is doing all the fab work, you might have heard of him. When i was younger he built an amazing 6? nova, tunedport BB, RED, did everything himself! The car was awesome. He now has a cool 69 camaro I think it is? Orange. Very nice also!
I'm just over the river in Gresham.



On a side note I JUST BOUGHT MY FIRST CAMARO! I pick it up tomorrow, 1970 sport coupe, nothing special but plan on making is special. Bill says he's been wanting to do one.
Here's a video that the guy did to show the car and motor.

The 67 is getting sheetmetal work done now, so these are the only pics i have other than the ones you see above. It's far from done keep in mind.

I was checking out the Nova Bill built while I was at Stan Adam's shop last year. It is a very nice car! I have always loved his 69 Camaro as well...it is one of the few true examples of a PT car up here in the NW!!

Bill always does nice work...that '67 is sure to be bad ass!! One of these days I would love the meet Bill and chat for a while!!
