Where do you get those?

I bought these wheels and tires to go on a frame I am building with c-4 suspension to go under my car after completion. The other day I decided to see how they would look on the car. The back ones are 335/30/18's on an 18x12 rim with 6" backspacing and the fronts are 275/35/18's on an 18x10 rim...

Hey those wheels look nice!! What are you doing for body work to cover them with? Be sure to post pics when you get them on, I would like to see a good side view to see how they fill the wheel wells. I am building a new frame for my 72 with c4 front and rear suspension with 335/35/18's on the...

I ended up mounting them by hand. I built a tool with a curved metal rind that I could use to collapse the bead on one side so I could get the other side bead on. And yes they do have to go on from the back. I have some pics in my "my project" thread in projects.

My buddy Chris at the tire store just called me and said my new wheels are in (Boyd Coddington) but when he tried to mount them up he cant get the tire to on the rim right so he called Boyds and they told him he needs a run flat tire machine to mount them. He has been the tire business for years...

I am going to get a pair of Fiero seats and re upholster them with covers from Mr Mike. I would like to do some sort of a logo on them and am looking for suggestions. I want to do "WICKD" and maybe some sort of a simple graphic to go along with it. The car is a 72 big block twin turbo, will have...

I have a few posts started around the forum about my project but I decided I need to have a central location to post to with updates so I can find it easy. I have a 72 vette with a 468 big block, twin turbos, and a 4l80e trans. Its a blow through turbo setup and its been on the road for almost...

Got a question about motor mounts. My car came with a small block from the factory and years ago I put a big block in it. I used the same motor mounts and just bolted the big block in with no problems. I have seen posts about motor mounts and some people talk like there are different mounts for...

I have a classic vette (72), but this post is about dashes and electrical stuff so if it needs moved, do it. I been looking at how to fit all my gauges, audio, switches, ect in my dash somewhere. I rebuilt the center section of my dash to accept 9 gauges and lost the room for a radio and even...

I am starting on my c4 suspension conversion for my 72 this winter, what does everybody like as far as bushings in the suspension? Rubber would be quieter I guess and I have heard poly bushings can squeak? Probably my biggest use for the car is street use/road trips. I am thinking some kind of...

Is there any place to find specs on c4 suspension, such as stock ride height, angles on control arms, shock lengths when the car is sitting at the stock ride height, rear half shaft angles, dog bone angles, ect? Mike

So what are some other reasonably priced choices for 18x12 rims?

I looked on their website and the prices they list were cheaper than any discount online places I found, wierd huh? I am looking for 18x12's and 18x10's and the 12's used to be a fortune, but they have a msrp of 855.00 and it seems a few years ago they were twice that much. Have 12 inch wheels...

Like the title says, where is the best deal to be had?

Are front and rear the same offset?

I did the brakes on my daughter's 07 pontiac G-6 and the rear calipers have a lever on them for mechanical park brakes. I had to buy a tool to screw the piston back in to get the new pads on.

I am moving ahead on my C-4 suspension conversion on my 72 frame. I need to get the wheels before I can really start doing anything. I am looking at some Coddington wheels, the F-22's. I need 18 by 12 for the rear and 18 by 10 for the front. The first question is what backspacing? What is the...
