Staggered wheels - How much is too much??
Good morning fellas! My '39 Ratrod project is moving along faster than expected! I think it's time to start shopping for some wheels and tires. Although I'm trying to keep the project under $10k in total, I've budgeted about 1/5 of my total project to where the rubber hits the road.
My original plan was to run 20" in the front and 22" in the rear. After a lot of modeling on the computer however, I've discovered that it might be a bit too tight with my side-steer setup to run such a large front wheel. I'm considering stepping down to an 18" front wheel, but I'm not sure how that would look with a set of 22" in the rear? Not too much comes up when ya search for it on the 'ol Google, or maybe I'm just not searching for the right stuff?
Anyway, I was wandering what you guys think about running such a staggered setup? I've included some [rather crude] photoshopped images of some of the wheels I've been looking at.
PS. Sorry for the neon green engine - $800 Craigslist purchase that hasn't been fixed yet :whacked:
