I think my car has been on jackstands more in the last 6 years than on the ground, I have bought everything I can possibly buy, Engine, trans, chassis, electrical, interior, I guess I better order up some wheels. 69 Camaro mini tubs and Morrison chassis. 14" wilwoods up front and 13s in the rear. I was considering 18s to begin with and now I am thinking 19x10 front and 20x12 rear with maybe a 305,315 or 325. I am blown away at the price of some wheels. I am hoping to get into a set for 2500-3g. Is this possible or am I just being a tight azz!
Thanks Travis

On a camaro, I think 18" wheels look best. Anything larger will look out of proportion, imho. Plus as you found out, there's a big difference in price, both in wheels/tires. $2500-3000 will get you a decent set of 18".

6 weeks and the new Rushforth Rated-x wheels should be rolling in. I appreciate the time some of the vendors gave me on the phone. I like the fact that when you call Jason Rushforth he answers the phone and returns your call. I will post up some pics when I get them.:G-Dub:

Cant wait to see them. What size did you end up going with? I personally, like 19's on a 69 myself.

Great choice in wheels. I just got mine a few weeks ago and couldn't be happier. Plus Jason was awesome to deal with.

If you don't mind me asking, what was the total for the wheels? I'm thinking about changing wheels on my car.

Call him and ask, Probably would depend on what size you go with.
