Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II

Thanks...20x10 rear and 20x8.5 front. I cant remember the tire size off hand, the rear are as wide as could possibly fit though. The front is going down one more inch in the next week, I just picked up some 2" drop springs today..will give me 5/5 drop...

I like those vette rallys, I still have my stock rallys. I plan to change them out from time to time.
