    Wheels

     



    Hi all, new to the forum. Looking for some wheels and tires for my 23T. Anyone have any good sources, or possibly someone has a set for sale?? Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Bob

    Sorry, I'm new at this street rod thing, I'm a corvette guy and always wanted to build a t-bucket. Right now I'm building my motor and looking for other things I'll need. I want to put nice wide tires on the rear so I'm thinking 16 or 17" rim with an 18-20" tire. If I measured the backspacing for the rear right, its about 9". On the front I'll probably run a 6" wide tire. The rear tires need to be 5 x 4.5 and the front can be either 5 x 4.5 or 5 x 4.75. Thinking I'll go with aluminum, what do you think??

    Thanks for the reply and any help you can give me.

    Bob

    See my other reply...

     



    I replied on your other thread, but I will reply here as well...

    I don't know exactly what you are looking for but I have a couple of American Racing Torque Thrust II's that might work on the front... They are 14x6 with the small Ford 5 lug pattern which I believe is 5 on 4.5... I also have mounted on them a set of BFG Comp T/As that measure 185/60 R14... Tires and wheels are both new with only about 1200 miles... I will let them go for $250 plus shipping if you are interested...

    E-mail me if interested...

    Prostars and really fat Mickey Thompsons??

     



    I have a set that would be perfect for a T-bucket advertised here. I also have a narrowed Ford 9" with Strange Axles that would work great out back. netincom@ameritech.net
