Re: help with rims for my 72
I went with 20" wheels all the way around. I ended up with a speacial lug nut on back with a 1/4" spacer because of my tire choice.I had to just knock off a little of the front hub for the wheel center to work.

Re: help with rims for my 72
I just ordered 20's for my 67 fleet, I have a 4/6 drop. I went with newstalgia wheel comp for my billet specialties MAG's. Im hoping in 2 more weeks they will be here. Not sure if i got a deal or not but they were cheaper then buying them direct from bs, and i like the idea of opening the box and putting them on you dont have to worry about the mounting crap.
