Projects Removing the street rod from an A RPU

Oh yeah! That's getting it!

 

The look of a Texas Cadillac.
Keep it up.

 

That looks sick! What size are your front/rear tires?

 

Looking good

 

Currently, fronts are 175 65 15s on 15x4s, rear's are 275 60 15s on 15x8s.
Planning to change over to 16x4s all round.

 

Thanks!

I bet it will look great with the 16's too. It has a nice hot rod rake right now.

 

Have you checked to make sure the 16s will clear the front fenders?

 

With a 4.50 it orta go close?

 

Id be more worried about height. New wheels and tires definitely look a good bit taller

 

Ride height isn't locked in as yet. Can raise it to aid tyre clearance.
Definitely looking at a 4.50 16 up front for big rake

 

That's about 2" taller than your current front tire (1" per side). So it'll bring the car up an inch and the tire will be 1" closer to the fender.
