The way it came, well sort of! 16" x 9 1/5" ( Stock 16" wheels I widened ) with 255/55R16 all around. 4 1/2" backset if I remember correctly.
P.S. Stock look & original cap, never goes out of style! http://lh4.ggpht.com/_jlNKkl-rSbc/Sk...0/DCP00834.JPG |

Check this out! I was running a vintage set of 15x7 Sprint slotted mags that I found at an old tire shop & cleaned & polished them up. Only used them for about six months & went back to painted smoothies and ww's.

The front swaps depend on if you do 'one stop internet shopping' or if you're more of a used parts harvester. I've done disc swaps using 73-87 donor parts for about $300; internet kits can run up to about $700 depending on options. The rear stuff is subjective. Some properly equipped automotive based machine shops can weld-up & re-drill 6-lug axles to the pattern you want for around/up to $200; but they'll still be 45+yr old parts. The rear end swap is only as good as the rear getting swapped. If the current rear end is good, replacement 5-lug axle 'kits' go for around $300-400 bux but you get new, stronger axles w/zero wear. |
