Someone has to have pics of these wheels on a 66-67 A-body by now right?

Why wouldn't Year one outfit these wheels on every Pontiac they can find and have pics laying around for customers? It would seem like a good sales move?

I know I have posted these pics elsewhere on the forums but here they are again. 17x8 with Goodyear Eagle 235/50R17 tires all around. I had a slight rub on the fronts but remedied that by loosening the bottom fender bolts and pulling the back part of the fender out. There was also a bump out on the driver's side that fender liner that a hammer made quick work of. I still get a rub if I take a hard, sharp turn but that's all.
The rears were a different story. The 67 rearend is 1" wider and that caused a problem with the 4.5" backspace on the wheels. When I let the car down off the jack the fender rubbed the tires at the top of the wheel well. I did two things to remedy that. First,(I can hear the moans and groans from the purists already!) I ground the inner lip of the top of the wheel well even with the stainless trim. Then, using coil spring spacers I raised the rear of the car up about 1.25"s. This gave me plenty of clearance so I didn't have to change the rear end out for a narrower one.
Here are a few pics. The two profile pics are old and new wheels and tires.
