I wanted to keep the 'traditional' look on my Formula with the period-correct 15" tires. I also wanted the ability to rotate my tires, so it was important for me to keep them the same size at all four corners. I went with a Corvette Rallye Wheel because they were cheap, could be ordered with any offset I wanted and would allow me to run the correct size tire/wheel combination until the car was finsihed and I could move up to Centerlines in the same sizing.

Whells are 15"x8" with 4.0" backspacing. Tires are 255/60/15's all the way around. I will be cutting 1 full coil off the front springs when I swap in the tubular upper and lower control arms to drop the nose down just a little...Robert
