I finally got around to ordering some new tires and mounted up the iForged "Classic" wheels. Here are the specs and photos.

Brand: iForged
Style: "Classic"
Front: 18x8 w 5.0 backspace
Rear: 18x10 w/ 5.5 backspace

Nitto tires, 245/40/18 fronts, 285/35/18 rears

BTW, the car is still stock. I've only restored some of the interior and replaced the convertible top so far.

Gotta love Iforged, looking good!!

 

Just like every other ride you have ever owned that is pimpin!

 

Nice!

 

simply beautiful!

 

Thats fucken awesome. You have and had some of the best looking cars. I wish I knew you.

 

amazing wheels and amazing car, but i'm not sure they go together so well?

 

Looks sweet Tone

 

It will look more "right" once you see the 6-piston Wilwoods, RS headlights, and a stance like my previous car had. Right now it is still stock and too high.

 

Look good! That last pic you posted, that car is sick!

 

I allways feel like kicking myself after reading your post, I miss my 69.

The wheels look great!

 

 

Looks great you big ol' pimp, you.

 

very nice

 

Once again, you never disappoint. Gorgeous car and keep up the good work!!!

 

I dunno. The car looked awesome to me with the factory wheels on it. I guess I'm a purist when it comes to first gens. Mine is still sporting the rallyes. I think if I ever change them they will be like a 60s era wheel, like these from ricks first generation. Good looking 69 Tony. My favorite color on a first gen too.

 

I still like the Torque Thrusts on these cars too, but they are way too common. If I'm building another car to stand out for magazine coverage, it needs a little more bling

What is funny is that I have Torque Thrusts on my 99 Hugger SS. Old wheels on the new car, modern wheels on the old car.

 

What Kind Of Rims Are Those On That Red Ss? Hre Or Intro Maybe.

 

Torque thrust look great, but like you said there way too common and there hard to keep polished also. Heres mine with 17" Torque thrust IIs.

 

I hear ya man. Your right on the magazine cars. Got to be a little different from the cookie cutter cars to get the featured articles. You got pictures of your 99 SS with the TT2s, or of both the 69 and 99 together? I would love to see what they look like on an orange car. One of my friends has a huggar orange 99 Z28 and he may be putting some wheels on it before long.
