Thanks. I too like the slightly lower nose stance of a car. Iwould like to get it lower but I think I will have a camber issue if I drop it more. I am pretty much out of adjustment now.

Looks good, any clearence problems when you turn the wheels? If so, get out the ball bat. I like the Louisville slugger. Flairs them very nicely.

It does rub slightly when I turn. I have 245 60's on all four corners but I want to put at least 225 60's which will probably eliminate the problem. I am also thinking about putting 18" Foose wheels but I will have to stick with less than 25" dia. tires to prevent the rubbing.

I think your stance is great and wouldn't touch a thing. I also like the wheels sizes you have chosen and everything seems to look in proportion.

Thanks. It has 15" Cragar's. I wouldn't mind changing them but it's a lot of money to realize that maybe they are the better look. Too bad we can't rent wheels to see if they are what we want......There's a business opportunity!

I absolutly hate the idea of using a baseball bat to "fix" your car. Apparently it works but talk about brutish.

By the looks of that '67, I don't think he even owns a baseball bat (too nice ofa car). I have been known to use a hammer but that would be on the undercarriage. I have wanted to at times!

actually there are places in my area called "Rent-A-Rim" that will rent-to-own rims

and i think you car looks good just the way it is just change the tires up front to fix the rubbing issue and be done
