Got the front 15 x 7 aluminum slots from a fellow "bolter", rear are 15 x 8-1/2, got those from AKH Vintage Wheels. Tires are Goodyear Silent Armor, 33x12.5x15 in the rear, 235-75-15 in the front. Check out the pic's at my webshots link. http://good-times.webshots.com/album/568290064MzvpclJohn

I wanted someting that was "period correct" for the mid 60's... hard to go wrong with aluminum slots. Here is a really cool article that chronicals the history of various aftermarket racing wheels. Neat stuff! http://www.roadsters.com/wheels/John | | | | | Joined: Jun 2003 Posts: 565 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2003 Posts: 565 | Nice. Does it feel like you're always going downhill with that wheel/tire combo?

That being said, as a child of the late 60's, early seventies, I have always liked the "rake" look.
