Just pre-ordered two of the 8" rims. If you look earlier in the thread I documented installation of the 9" rims on my 68 Firebird and found an 8" would be perfect. This means I will have (2) excellent condition 9" rims available for sale in October for those looking to save some coin.

I thought it looked great with those 9" wheels in front. I didnt see it as a "low rider" look at all. More like a mean, wide stance road racer look. Its your car, but I thought it looked awesome!

Thanks for the compliment. Year One did an excellent job with the rims.
For the front I prefer little narrower and like a sidewall that's more square so that's why I would prefer the 8" wheel.
