Hell Bent for Speed
I'm struggeling with which way to go, so I want to get some input from fellow '70 owners with aftermarket wheels.
I'm going with the American Racing Torq Thrust M - black wheel:
This is where I am at right now.
Front options:
* Torq Thrust M - Black 17x8, 4 1/2" Backspacing
* Torq Thrust M - Black 17x8, 5 3/8" backspacing.
Rear options:
* Torq Thrust M - Black 17x8, 5 3/8" backspacing.
* Torq Thrust M - Black 17x9, 6" backspacing
I have measured the rears over and over, and it looks like either will work, but the 9" may be getting tight. And I do not have rolled fenders, and would prefer to not go that route. I'm also lowered 2" all around.
Can anyone give some input - or recommendations? I want to keep the T/W combo tucked under the car as much as possible too.
