Trying to pick the right wheel??? for a 67 So I am currently building a pro touring 67 RS twin turbo lsx camaro and having a heck of a time picking wheels!!! Thinking fikse but ouch the price is painful and after all the other out of control spending on this build trying to not hurt so much. I am looking at possibly 18*8.5 in front and 18 or 19*11 in rear. Car has a mini tub and going with detroit speed suspension all the way around. Anyone have suggestions? pictures??? would be great!!
Thanks
Thanks

Theres so many rim styles out there. It all depends on how much you wanna spend. I would do a search on 
images and look at all the different styles on 1st gen Camaros. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&g...DaTB0QHnrIGABQ Hope that helps.

A good set of wheels on a pro-touring car is going to cost you some money. I'd probably recommend looking at Rushforth wheels for some nice styles. If you really want to get good info, hit up either Pro-touring.com or Lateral-G.net. Both of them are dedicated to the build style, and have MANY examples of what you're looking for.

Yep that is the main problem SO MANY choices and it is going to affect the look of the car so much. I have been on google and pro touring thanks for the tips they have alot of NICE cars there. Just will keep searching to find the right set. Hard to really judge though till you see them on your own car.

I'm finishing up a 68 for a customer right now. Rushforth wheels are great. I'm running 18x8 and 18x13 with a 345 I'm the rear. Hands down the best customer service I have found from a wheel company and we deal with a lot of them
