Nice car…Even tho the wheels are sold, I hope u don't mind a couple questions for future reference. I am one who likes that 8" wide wheel look…A LOT!

Was your car stock height? Did u have any rubbing issues on the front (i.e. on the frame or inner fenders when turning lock to lock, or when suspension was compressed while driving)?

Thx

David,

Thank you. I sold those ARs because I wanted the original 65 Rally Wheel look and I am still looking for a clean set. The ARs were really nice wheels and had a nice look, and I had no problems with them, There was no interference from lock to lock whether moving or at rest.

The car was original, had a little spring sag so the ride height was probably a bit low. I recently changed the Springs with ones from Coil Springs Specialties. The new springs are to the original standard specs. That is what you see in the Avatar with the original steel wheels and hub caps.

Rock On
