My 70 is in desperate need of new shoes and the crap wheels that came with it have got to go. I am currently rebuilding the front end I have bought mostly stock replacement parts except for a Helwig sway bar, Poly bushings and Global West coil springs which drop the front 1".
This 69 SS is my inspiration. To me it appears as if he is running 15x8 Front and Rear and I have no idea about the size tire that is mounted.
I have read a lot of the older Impalas running 15x8 f&r with no problems. But I have read that the 70 with factory disks need the have narrower front wheels to deal with the spindles being pushed out farther than a drum front end. Anyone been able to fit 15x8 on the front of a 70? Would a 255/60/15 front & rear be feasible? Would nice to be able to rotate the tires on all 4 corners.
