http://www.porterbuiltfabrication.co...arting-at-1900 and im not sure if or how much the rear end will have to be narrowed but im actually runnin a ford 9inch. Maybe this will help you some. Only build thread ive found where someone ran a wheel 14" wide. I didnt read it much so idk if he gives any specs but hopefully itll help you some http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=434754 Posted via Mobile Device Posted via Mobile Device Last edited by NuttinSpecial; 10-16-2011 at 09:17 PM. |

Re: 22/24 billet wheels
Cant go wrong with anything made by intro, boyd, or bonspeed imo. But everyone has different tastes. The intro vista or twisted vista is always a good way to go. If you can afford em that is lol.

Re: 22/24 billet wheels
You can run up to a 35 series up front and stay under 30" no problem. But even with a 25 series in back you wont be able to stay under 30" cause of the width youll need. A 305/25/24 is exactly 30 inches tall. But is only 12.01 inches wide. Obviously you would need a wider tire but they only get taller. Just to give you an idea. a 315/25/24 is 30.20 inches tall. Youll prbly need like a 355 or somethin in that area which would be 31" tall

Re: 22/24 billet wheels
Here's a thread that I was following that seems to have since been abandoned (I know, I know, I have no room to talk)...
It's a pretty sweet start. Would be cool to see what the current status is. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=390955 Posted via Mobile Device Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 22/24 billet wheels
What about Superflysteiny's black Cheyenne? He is running 22's all around, can't remember the spec's but the rear was narrowed 4" (2" per side). Here is his build thread http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/...y/chevy043.jpg (all 56 pages!)
and a picture
