Wheels for 70 Chevelle SS
intro makes a really nice wheel. i have done them on a couple projects. i have intros on my 70SS. although im sure mine are to big for you, its the same basic theroy. a 315 in the rear takes alot of work to fit and sit down in the rear. it stick with a 285, 305 if you can help it. redline oil did thier 70 with 315s in the rear i belive.

assclown.
The TTIIs just don't do much for me on the Chevelle. Out of the listed options, I'd go with the Rally Intros, but I'm interested in seeing what you decided on.
Redlines will look great on it.

I guess you are one of the typical types around here that would put TT2s on everything you own, or some form of vette wheel on every fbody on the planet.

Personally I don't like the black spokes on these wheels...too dark for my taste no detail especially when the wheels are spinning.I think the grey centers give it that "competition look" and along with the longer stainless trans-am style lugs,it completes the look for me.
Can't seem to figure out how to post pics here,it keeps saying my files are too big.Oh well,thanks for looking guys.

LOL!! Welcome to LS1tech!!!
hey tony put some 18" rally wheels on it. they make them in 20's also but thats too big imo
would go really nice with the 18" redline tires nitto just came out with
**edit** that would be too much red trying to interact with eachother
good luck with your choice

Intro Wheels "Rally"
Intro Wheels "Speedstar"

I've also considered ordering another set of 18" TT2 Classics like I have on my orange '69 Camaro. Just love the classic look!
Any other ideas or opinions?

I would not go with a full polished center. Kinesis K58 with a grey center may work. I had thought about 17x9.5s up front and 18x10.5s out back to add a bit of a rake. I always liked AndrewB's 70 GTO.
