Hi,
You will not need spacers in the rear, they will bolt up fine. I do not know about body rubbing though,

Up front you will need alot of spacing or you will hit the upper balljoint. We're talking 1 1/2" minimum which is too much. Again, don't know about body rubbing.

For the price of the wheels, adapters, and trouble fitting, it'd be easier and cheaper to get wheels made properly for your car.

Nic
BTW, that car looks like crap[:'(]

Ya I know the paint is really corny with the blue flames... I am just trying to find all the possibilities. I prefer to stand out and not move with the crowd, hence the Cobra Rims. But it seems my choices have been limited once again. Probably just going to go with the original Torque Thrust II's

I was going to suggest the Thrusts, hmm.

I put my powdercoated silver ones on and it didnt look too bad, but I think that black chrome in the picture doesnt look good at all. Clashes with the color too much...

Ya definately... I WAS thinking of going with Black TT II's, how do you think those would look with a Black '67 Coupe that has 2 white racing stripes down the center?

yes, i've seen it done... I made them fit for one of my friends at the time. the rears fit fine with the correct spacer but the fronts take some heavy modification which I don't recommend. but you can get them to fit by shaving down the upper control arm ball joint cover but then your still going to need spacers.

Ya see the problem is I swapped out my stock front suspension for a Global West Negative roll Suspension. Does that really make a difference?

Yes I definately agree that the Chrome on black is a very clean/classy yet aggressive look... I definitely didn't think I would change my mind but now I'm seriously reconsidering my old plans, and leaning towards new ones. I'm not fond of the mag's tho I think they are too "old-school" for me.
