Wheel combination for a 1969 Z28.
 

We're considering doing some wheel/tire upgrade on the '69 Z28. Tires aside for now, I am having a tough time picking between the final 2 choices.

A) 15x8 rear and 15x4 A.R. TT wheels
B) 15x8 rear Cragar S/S and 15X4 (or 5) Centerlines

cehck out the picture below.

Send me a photo of your car and your wheel choices and Ill edit them in for you so you can actually see it..

I think the TT's are being done to death lately. You can't go wrong with the classic Crager SS look IMO

Re: Wheel combination for a 1969 Z28.
 

Ditto

Re: Wheel combination for a 1969 Z28.
 

I have a set of mint 14x7 and 15x8.5 Ansens, direct bolt pattern chevy, not unilug. Rears look like NOS NO curb damage whatsoever-fronts need sanded and polished but no curb damage. Includes 4 original metal Ansen caps and two of those are NOS if you are interested

I also have a set of NOS never mounted on a car 15x4 Cragars SS unilug with new 6.00 BF goodrich bias ply front runners with '70's style tread look. Tires were mounted and balanced but have never seen the street.

There is nothing like Cragars @ night with the lights bouncing off them or durning the day with the sun reflecting off the chrome. I had Cragar SS wheels on my '70 "Green" Nova and it looked awesome. I also think the Mini Lite wheels look great on '69's too. Good Luck.

Check out this Camaro. Sits right-raised up in front, white headers poking out underneath etc.

You know I have a pretty humble opinion when it comes to Day 2 mods https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif SO:::

Don't consider the TT, and unless you have a race car don't mix- match wheels for the street(it doesn't even look good on a race car) in my most humble opinion.

BTW: Who all like the look of the green camaro??

Green sucks. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

j/k... very cool Day 2 ride. The white headers are a must IMO.

Re: Wheel combination for a 1969 Z28.
 

No Joe, TRIPLE GREEN sucks. Get it right fer'cris'sakes!

Okay, I'll edit this to add: I was just kidding!

Re: Wheel combination for a 1969 Z28.
 

NOW YER'TALKIN!!! Here's an example of green, Rally Green, kicking some butt! I wouldn't change a thing.

Triple, double, quadruple, green is kool. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

That is a great combo! (Darren)??!! White headers is what I seem to remember most in the old days. People don't realize how many of us ran header mufflers when they came out. I used to go to Chevy and buy the chambered exhaust mufflers and weld collectors on them and use them as header mufflers. We bought the GM mufflers for $16.00 each. I'll never forget that. Nice camaro Dave. Sits nice and love those header mufflers.

I remember that car on the cover of Super Chevy? I loved it then and love it now.

A nice set of Ansen slots would make any color look nice...even multi-green! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

You also need one of these on the back end. Just restored this one with new ET decal.

Re: Wheel combination for a 1969 Z28.
 

another pic. Letters look black but they are chrome like original.

Re: Wheel combination for a 1969 Z28.
 

It was in Car Craft circa 1980 or early 81. I was a freshman at Ohio State and loved that car. Set up just like a friends burnished brown 69Z. Same ride height, Cragars etc.

i would definately go with choice "B" centerlines on the front and cragar s/s on the rear.i'm still trying to find a good 15x10 wheel for the back of my 72 camaro.i'm running 15x4 us-indy mags up front and maybe 15x10 cragar s/s or satin finish 15x10 centerlines for the rear if they still offer satin finished wheels. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif
