Is it just me or do these early 2nd Gen rally's look great on just about anything GM?
Here,I like them better than the original SS wheels.GM did get it right however later on:

Difficult and expensive to acquire all the correct pieces, and obtain the correct "look".............

Do you have any clearance (rubbing) issues with the front tires on the Z ?

They look close...and they are...but no issues.
Most of the wheels I've had on the '69 were 4.5" b/s on a 8" wheel and while close,it doesn't rub with how this car is setup.
All my other wheels are 4.75" & 4.875" b/s on a 8" wheel and I have all kinds of clearance there.

Before I bought my '70 Z28, I was going to put Torque Thrust wheels on it. When I got it and saw those beautiful original wheels, there was no way I could make the change.
I love those wheels.

When you post something you will also notice the "Instant UBB Code" section, you can click on "Image" and copy your link in there without having to type
