What's wrong with Mickey Thompsons. It's a muscle car with muscle car tyres to match.
Me like.........:shades:
Gene:
Very nice....car looks great!
bonnevista:
The M/T's look great.
Col, if you want to go the 'garage hack' route, as I always do, you might find that HQ Holden station wagon rear springs could give you what you need. They do give you a little more than sedan springs and worked perfectly to give me the 'lowered' look in my '64 Bonneville years ago - but my Bonne was a waaay heavier car. As far as I know, they're a bolt in swap, however, I could be wrong.:fingers:
Also, it's not like you find HQ coils at a swap meet for $5 anymore.:cry:
our 66 GT:
Hi Col, Nice wheels mate!!!:cool:, original style rims with a BEEFY rear end :bow:

Regards Mark.

Thanks Chris. Your right on. HQ/WB springs are the same as GM A body. Going to have my springs load tested next week and will work out what I need from there. Looks like I can get an off the shelf H/D spring to suit after talking to our suspension guys today. Probably go with heavier shocks to slow the compress rate a bit too.
