Wheel combination for a 1969 Z28.
 
We're considering doing some wheel/tire upgrade on the '69 Z28. Tires aside for now, I am having a tough time picking between the final 2 choices.

A) 15x8 rear and 15x4 A.R. TT wheels
B) 15x8 rear Cragar S/S and 15X4 (or 5) Centerlines

cehck out the picture below.

Thanks guys! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

I think the TT's are being done to death lately. You can't go wrong with the classic Crager SS look IMO

I have a set of mint 14x7 and 15x8.5 Ansens, direct bolt pattern chevy, not unilug. Rears look like NOS NO curb damage whatsoever-fronts need sanded and polished but no curb damage. Includes 4 original metal Ansen caps and two of those are NOS if you are interested

I also have a set of NOS never mounted on a car 15x4 Cragars SS unilug with new 6.00 BF goodrich bias ply front runners with '70's style tread look. Tires were mounted and balanced but have never seen the street.

There is nothing like Cragars @ night with the lights bouncing off them or durning the day with the sun reflecting off the chrome. I had Cragar SS wheels on my '70 "Green" Nova and it looked awesome. I also think the Mini Lite wheels look great on '69's too. Good Luck.

Check out this Camaro. Sits right-raised up in front, white headers poking out underneath etc.

You know I have a pretty humble opinion when it comes to Day 2 mods https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif SO:::

Don't consider the TT, and unless you have a race car don't mix- match wheels for the street(it doesn't even look good on a race car) in my most humble opinion.

BTW: Who all like the look of the green camaro??

Green sucks. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

j/k... very cool Day 2 ride. The white headers are a must IMO.
