My very first post to this forum, 5 years ago, was asking opinions about wheels.  I never ended up upgrading them and have been rolling with my dog dishes ever since I bought the car 10+ years ago.  But I finally settled on a set of 17x8 American Racing VN501's (the updated version of the Magnum 500s).  I wrapped them in some BF Goodrich G-Force COMP-2 A/S - 245/45s.  Here's a before and after picture:

Now i'm going to have to lower it an inch or 2, any recommended kits?

 
Very sharp, I like the bigger dia Magnums. Ryan

 
Call these people. https://www.eatondetroitspring.com and tell them what you want. It looks like the stock springs were replaced with incorrect aftermarket springs yielding the off road stance. I see it a lot. Chuck

Been looking for something different for my 72 with 14" sport hubcaps, wanted to go to a 15" , came across these tires and rims(mounted and balanced with tread) on Craigslist that were advertised as 15" and ended up being 14". The guy just wanted them gone so I got them for a song and put em on. Took it up to triple digits on the way to the gas station.   Me Likey! :)
