Thanks..

 

Very nice car. And great wheels too.

What tyre and rim size do you have on the rear if may I ask? What back space?

Thanks

 

Thanks. Yes I love the Rims...The Rears are 19x10 with 285/35/19 Tires.. I don't know the Backspacing..


Funny I spent more on the Rims and Tires than I did for the Car back in 1983....


But at 54 Years old, I am building the car like I want it as Money and the Wife allows me too

 

It has been a minute. I still like the Rushforths. Glad your enjoying it though.

 

Yes wheels are expensive. I am looking to use Fesler wheels. They make nice wheels too + stupid amount of shipping and duty cost //'/ Will go for brushed instead of black since colour of the car is planned to be silver. Very difficult to select the colour in the stage I am in at the moment. maybe I will change the colour again

 

Amen...You have to be Sure when you buy them because at the cost they are, you are only going to be buying them once.. I spent many weeks thinking and choosing before I bought mine..


I started a chain reaction...First the new suspension, and while doing it, the bigger brakes, which caused the bigger wheels and the bigger costs....Ahhhhhhhhh...


But I am happy so that is what is important..

 

Yes my friend. It is chain reaction. I started with ordering the ridetech suspensions and triangulated 4 link, and now it is time for Baer brakes 6 piston etc etc. I recently bought the wheel fit professional 45 kit from Fesler. Although I did not use it yet, it looks very good. With this tool, you buy the tyre first and then you will calculate the offset and back spacing of the wheel. It is a good tool and if used carefully will prevent buying incorrect measured wheels. I need to be very carefully when taking measurments.

At the moment, I am measuring the rear axle stock width using plumbobbs.
