    I am seriously thinking about the WW idea. Will have to see if carbs and chrome would be nice enough to run some of those colors with a whitewall tire. I bet it would look pretty sweet with some on. If I went with whitewalls I might go with the black and chrome smoothie, but not sure as of yet.

    Well after all that I ended up figuring out a front wheel with enough backspace and a proper tire size to fit. AR TT2's, 245/50/16 rear, 185/55/15 front. Really happy with how it came together.

  7. I didn't expect polished 5 spokes but If you like it that's all that matters. HRP
     
  8. Looks nice. I'd drive it. No, really, bring it on down and I'll drive it around for you.....maybe buy you a beer for your trouble.

    Thanks HOTROD, I always wanted to go this way but I didnt think I could and get the offset right so my front tires wouldnt rub. Ended up getting these AR's with a decent backspace and a slightly smaller ratio tire. Works great.
