thanks everyone!! But the fronts are 15x 3.5 i think the BS is like 1.75, the tires are 165/15s, the rears are 15x8 with 4.5 BS and 28x12.5 et streets(i know its a little big on a 8" rim, but my buddy has my 28x9 et drags). Hopefully the motor will be back in it by late June, but how knows! Im hoping to hit some high 6s with nitrous in the 1/8th, but once again who knows.

no workin' on it! gotta get the vitals workin' first, i still daily drive this car! once i'm back intown, the plan was to pick up front wheels, but the block cracked and i gotta get that 305 back together so i can still drive it. i'm gonna go ahead and pick up some nice front tires for my 1991 z28 wheels i picked up. got the 295/50/16 on the back right now, but i've still got the 15" z28 wheels up front, lol! it looks very silly right now. i hope to get a matching set on it before the end of the summer...whatever that might be! once i get another daily driver, i'll put the rodlites on it full time, and the 1991 z28's will go on the daily (hoping for an el camino )
