Default Wheel sizes for 68 camaro

So I mini tubed my 68, I have 6 wheels all the same design.

18x8
19"
20"

I was thinking on doing 19x8 in front and 20x11 in the rear, but I cannot make up my mind or should I go 18 front and 19x12 in the rear.

Open to options..

Wheels are Budnik Triggers

Ya I have been thinking about it for 2 weeks. I think I am going to go with 18" 19" rear. I want the car to ride pretty low.

Default I have heard

good things about the NT05, but I know nothing from a personal basis. I will proabably go with these tires soon.

My vote is also 19's in the rear and 18's upfront. Also makes brakes look bigger.

I even like the 18's in the rear and 17's up front, i know, i know i need to step into whats-in today, i guess still a little old school still in me, but i personally like this look on a 67 and 68. Also makes the brakes look bigger if your running 13" rotors.
