FamousZ street rep is low. keep going
Coming Along...

Alright everyone, I have a few questions I wanted to ask everyone.. On the answers of these questions please be serious, and dont add in stupid stuff.. Since my system is almost done and ready to get put in I am starting to think more towards the new rims, and hockey stick stripe..

The first question is, what should I get put into the break of my hockey stick stripes? Grant and I were talking and thought that getting the 68/69 script Camaro badges and putting them in between the break. I was wondering what everyone else thought..

And the second question is, should I go with 17x8.5 for all for wheels or should I go with the 17x8.5 in front and the 18x9.5 in the back? Either way I think it will look really good, I just wanna get to see what everyone else thinks..

I like all 4 rims the same height. And I think the break in the stripe would look good.

I say all 4 rims the same size, I don't like the steep rake from bigger tires in back, for the break the '67 badge may look better it was a little smaller (the '69 script is a big emblem unless you do teh header or trunk emblem that has by chevrolet on it too)

imported_Sincere is an unknown quantity at this point
The wheels should be the same size all around, especially for someone who cant afford new tires all the time. (no option to rotate)

As for the break in the badge, well, me personally, I would just have full on hockey stripes...
