Default Budnik Wheels

I just put a deposit down on a set of these wheels and due to price don't want to get them put on and have regrets if I can avoid it. I have a 67 RS Camaro Convertible. What do you think? I can't photoshop and am having a hard time visualizing these and would like to hear other opinions? Car will either be Black or Ferrari Silver. I specified 19" in back and 18" in front x 8" wide.

cool wheels.i think you would be happier with 18's and 17's,the tire size's are much better for a 18 than 19.and a 18 imo looks better.

I have 18" wheels out back now and they just don't fill the wheel well enough but that may be solved with dropping it some more. I am going to think about it some more since as you mentioned tire choices are very limited with 19". Here is a side view.

Default rubber

it will require a slight mini-tub in the back but you could run C6 rubber on those rims. Stock is 245/35/18 on 8.5/18 rim in front and 285/30/19 on 10/19 rim in the rear.

Been looking for R compound tires in that size but I have not found any yet.
