Hi all!:)

I just got another toy, a 79, with it came a very nice set of weld racing wheels, when I removed them to replace the tires I found spacers..oops!

My question is who makes a good wheel that doesnt break the budget, besides American 5-spokers, and what is the safe range in backspacing and offsets, I was going to put 255s on the front and 275s on the back, (15x8) what would be nice to know is what is out there that will clear the rotors w/o negative offsets. (or minimum)

My 77 has LR60s on the back and GR60s on the front and I like the look, with Appliance wheels that I never had a problem with...but are gone now I guess.

Do I sound confused??:)
