There is soooooo much wheel/tire info on here ... try some searches and you will get lots of info. Only use advice from those having or have had 65/66 cars, though. Good luck.

I went w/ the TT II's, very popular wheel, lots of guys have them. I went w/
17x8 4.75 b/s. I run a 225/45/17 on front and 255/40/17 rear Kumho tire. There really are tons of choices...

After you learn how to properly spell and use some/sum in the proper way, do a search for tires/wheels and for air shocks. You're not breaking any new ground here and this has been discussed too much as is.

I think 302 Coupe didnt meant to be unfriendly, but indeed there is a huge amount on info already discussed in previous threads that could help you out, if after reading some or all of the posts you have a doubt you are in your right to ask.
I wish I could help you out but I have stockish wheels

Winning friends fast I see

4 post, 2 threads.....about the same thing

Anyway, link in the sig will point you to my wheel chart...it gets mentioned from time to time and is a half decent resource to help learn/figure out what will work on your car with what you have, that way you are not reliant on anyone else for information that may or may not be useful/accurate for your specific car.
