Running 18/20s right now with a bit more meat due to our rough roads. Will go 20/22 later on though. Heidts Superride coilover up front and leafs out back.

Thats sweet! I was thinking about doin 20/22! with this c4 front end im doin right now im just worried about being to low! but i guess i could go with like 7 inch wide in the front with some offset so i dont hit the fenders when i turn lol this is my first build and im not understanding the whole suspension thing just yet lol

it looks like you could go 20 in the front with some smaller tires.. how wide are those??

These look great on any of these old chevy's IMO. I think they are 20's.

I believe that photo was taken by someone on here. I just googled it. Those are Detroit steel wheels Inc. kind of pricey but real cool.

adam and pam at mobsteel/detroit steel wheels are great people, we got a set of the 20s for my buddys ride. first rate stuff, recommend highly! they even modified his dog dish caps when they found out they would not take clips
