I'm looking at this wheel.
Level 8 Wheels strike 5

17x9 with zero offset.

it appears it will fit fine at that size

possibly a 17x7 in front.

225/40/17 and 245/45/17 tires.

the current rear tire is a 27 inch tall piece. it has several inches between fender lips and tire. of course the gremlin has serious pockets so there is no rubbing or chance of it. I'm going to lower it if i do that tire, i think the car would look even better and its fitting of the tire and wheel choice.

that engine is the original 304. it runs surprisingly well. i have a 393 inch destroyed 401 in the garage I'm starting work on right now. ill run ls1 rockers on it, a decent hud flat tappet cam and shoot for around 500-550 hp at flywheel.

of course thats probably way too much for such a light car though.
