I only like those wheels on dark F-bodies for some reason. Looks good.

I would say lowering, it would be smart to roll the fenders and maybe even cut the bumpstops....more will chime in that are more in the know

couldn't answer your question about lowering it, but those wheels look good on your car... the only bad part is you have to change your signature picture now

The wheels look great! You may or may not need to roll the fender lips. My car didn't require it, but I did need to trim the bump stops and smooth the buldge at the front inner portion of the wheel housing. The car certainly needs to come down a bit.

What's the deal with the '67 El Camino SS? If you ever need parts, we offer a full line of restoration parts for Chevelle, El Camino, GTO, etc.

Great choice of rim! Im runnin 295's on a set of 18x9.5 fronts and 18x10.5 rears C6 Z06's. when my ride is loaded down the fender edges do tend to hit the outside of the tires when I hit bumps. I do plan on getting my lips rolled so I can sooner or later throw some 315's on the rears.
