New 20's on the 85

[70Chevelle]

Picked up a set of Vision Wheels, I ended up having to run a 1/2" spacer on the front to clear the hub which required tracking down longer wheel studs on a Saturday afternoon but I got it done.

255/45/20 out front and 275/45/20 in the rear.

Pretty happy with the look, need to fix the rake a bit by raising the back about an inch but it rides so much better than the old rims and dry rotted 275/40's

Nice look, but I've never been a fan of spacers due to the dangers using them. Most tire shops won't even work on vehicles with them installed due to liabilit . Spacers like to get loose, so make extra sure to torque and check often. Were you not able to find those wheels with the correct backspacing? You might want to look into installing some wheel adapters instead and replace the spacers for safety reasons. I'm just throwing it out there as a concern.

The spacers were not for offset issues, but rather for clearance issues on the wheel hub, part of the reason for this swap was to eliminate the wheel adapters that were on it. I didnt plan to or want to run spacers but at the end of the day it will be fine. It has new longer wheel studs and I check the lug nuts often.

It was lowered when I bought it, cut springs and a flip kit. I am going to do drop spindles and maybe 1 coil cut springs, its way too bouncy right now. Ideally I would like to raise it 1/2 inch in the front and an inch in the rear if I can.
