BTW, the car has no motor in this photo.
Yeah I like to have a staggered set. I don't mind not being able to rotate them. My 67 is going to be a somewhat show car until it becomes my DD again in August. Won't be putting many miles on it.

Ordered my set for the 67 this morning. Ended up going with 15s again. I started searching for details and found some decent tires for a good price in a decent size. Ended up buying 15x7 and 15x8 Chrome torq thrust/bullitt style rims. I'll post some pictures once I get them in. Shouldn't take but a coupe days(if that) to get here since they are coming from Summit.

Unsure on the size tires I am getting.
