Finally shot a pic of my ride with the new rims, tires and lowered 2". Sorry it took so long for those of you who like these wheels. They are 17"x8" chrome with 245/45/17 front and 275/45/17 rear. Not bad for $1200 total I think.
Let me know if you have any questions!

The wheels are 17x8-5-120.65 OC from Discount Tire Direct. I worked with Craig who was extrememly helpful and knowledgable especially with old muscle. I have no clearance problems even lowered 2" the wheels turn fully with no rubbing. Now the full length Hooker headers are a different story completely. Gotta watch every uneven surface on the roads now!




Hope that helps those who want these wheels.
