The rear tires are 8.20-15 Mickey Thompson Radir cheaters. The wheels are rare American Racing Standards from the late '60s. These aluminum four-spokes were only produced in a very limited number. Todd managed to find four of them. Jimmy put them on a lathe to round the squared edges, sealed the large center holes with a 1/8-inch aluminum plate, then polished them. To correctly position the larger wheels in the '57 Chevy wheelwells, Jimmy fabricated custom spring mounts to move the rearend back 1 inch. Now, the tires are centered instead of sitting too far forward. View Related Article
