I'm going with Coy C5's too. Maybe 22x9 for the rear though We'll have to talk offset and tire sizes. Are those the polished?
It was a lot of work, but I think the result is going to be well worth it. 95% of the people that look at it won't know the difference, but that's kinda the point.

The wheels are polished. I used a wheel/tire measuring tool that I got from Mike at MuscleRodz. I came out with a 4" backspacing on a 20 X 10 wheel. PCMCobras were 5 or 5 1/2" backspacing. He had them mounted on a 86 SWB.

I think the difference being 1970 and back rearend are inch or so (I think) shorter on each side. Here's a link to his wheels. If I would have been thinking, I probably should have bought them for the CrewCab, , .
