i was using that for reference, i guess it was not a good example, but yes a 20x10 should work with no problems

Kenny, you can put 20 X 12 a,d 345/25/20 on the DSE tubs if you go deep and do not use leaf springs

Width doesn't seem to be a problem as much as height. We had to make our own tubs and did quite alot of "clearancing" to get the 295/40/20's to fit at our ride height.

I'd go with the DSE quadra-link or the Lateral Dynamics 3 link for the rear.

You are not going to get a 10 inch wide rim work. Friend has 68 convertible with 17 by 10 with a 275/40/17 tire and they rub a slight amount on big bumps running just leafs. With the air ride I think it will do the same unless you clearance it in more than a few areas. 68's are about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch more narrow on each side than a 69.

If you are gong to run it low with 20's, I think you will need a 9 inch wide with a 265 width tire.

On my 69 with the fender lip trimed I could not get a 285/19 to work without a slight mini tub...and again the 68 is more narrow
