Rudi. I agree.  The black and gray ones' front tires look like they will rub in a turn.  I've had that condition and it made my car almost undrivable.  I had to put on smaller front tires and a spring spacer too.  It now works ok, but I liked the stance better before the spacer.  

And I prefer 16" wheels to 17's.  The proportions are better.







' wheels to 17"s

15's are good too.

Air suspension as well, could be jacked up for parking and driveway ramps.

My arms aren't any shorter than stock, but they might do that on theirs. You can also use a shorter spindle (Mustang II or Wilwood) that fits inside the wheel, which allows more tire and wheel inboard.

I was looking at 315 tire options for my build.  But I think the 315 may be just a tad to tight for my liking so I started looking and a size smaller and sadly the 18 inch tire selection is great than the 17 inch tire options.  I really don't want an 18 inch rim on my 66.  But those builds just look like they do the larger rim size justice.
