Here's a few we've put shoes on in various diameters. The last one being a Firebird but basically the same wheelwells and proportions.

19 and 20" Rushforth Troopers

Brian Finch's awesome autocross machine running 18" Rushforth Livewires

18x10 and 12" Whiplashes which like Brian's car is all DSE underneath. Thanks to DSE for this pic

18 & 19" Rushforth Fuels in stock wheelwells

19" Rushforth Night Trains front and rear

Those tires seem to be quite big for an 8 inch rim! I wanted to do that same tire and rim combination, and was advised against it. But It looks good!

Here's a 73 Camaro we built our Tach wheels for. This Car has 19" front and 20" rear. The finish on the wheels is a brushed satin center with a high polished lip. I hope this helps.
