Oh they're saying you need a 10" rim. Most vette guys don't know shit about anything besides the best labor rates in the area.Originally posted by Baron View PostWhat size are they saying?"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

Lol well I'm going to try some 18" staggered FR500's on the 69 and was looking at tire sizes.I've got some 255's but I'm pretty sure they won't be wide enough for a 10" wheel.Originally posted by 5.0_CJ View PostOh they're saying you need a 10" rim.

oh damn no way. A 10" wheel is like a 275 minimum, or you'll look like the local dallas thugs with rims sticking out of their tires.Originally posted by Baron View PostLol well I'm going to try some 18" staggered FR500's on the 69 and was looking at tire sizes.I've got some 255's but I'm pretty sure they won't be wide enough for a 10" wheel."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

Well 295-315 seems to be the standard.Originally posted by Baron View PostIts not what I wanted, but to buy two I had to get 4, so I have 2 extras.

The tires were free(used off the back end of a Viper) and my brother was a tire-monkey at the time - so we wrestled them onto the rim and threw them on the back of my 77 Chevy LWB. It took about 45 minutes per tire to put them on and almost double to get them off!Originally posted by 5.0_CJ View Post:x
The sidewalls angled in at almost 45*!
