I like those because they remind me of the old Rally II's that I have on there now, but like a modernized version.

Also, if anyone recommends a Torq Thrust 2, I will punch you in the stomach, haha just kidding, but honestly WAY too many people use those now, If you google 68 firebird, there are like tons of them with big sized TT2's

I wanted to get some 17" wheels, maybe 17x8 up front and 17x9.5 out back

I know I am going to have to massage the rear frame rails to get the 9.5s back there

I have a '67 400 Firebird torn apart in my garage right now and I think the M5 would look awesome. I've seen the Fontana's on a '68 Camaro and they were just okay. I like the Cragar SS for a period correct "hot rod" look but for a "carver" go with the M5.

Post some pics if you get 'em.

It wont be anytime soon, haha

I am still far from thinking wheels and tires.

Mine is pretty close to being torn apart right now

I've also been thinking about swapping the wheels on my 68 for the american wheels .. in 17x8
