[Chevelle-list] Another Question How About Mini-tubbing

[Mike Holleman]

Tim, I'll send a couple of shots offlist that show the wheels mounted. But they are upclose and don't really show the car. The fronts are 18x8- 4.5" BS. 245/40 nittos. I have not yet shot finished pics of the car. It is a customers, but I have a photographer doing a shoot on it very soon and will be glad to share those shots. I have a very minor rub, top center of the outer fender on the RS only. It has after market fenders and they are slightly different from side to side. Anyway look for a couple of pics.

  Mike,

  Do you have any pictures of your car with these wheels? I'd love to see them. What are you running in the front???

  Thanks,

  Josh, You don't need to minitub a 66 to fit 10 inch wheels. I just did one with 10" w/ 5.5" BS. Good clearance inside and I thinned the outer lip and reshaped the inner well a bit above the lip. Running 285/35-18's. No clearance issues.

    While I'm asking a bunch of questions does anyone know where there are articles/ videos on how to do a minitub? I saw them do it on Musclecar but I would like something a little more in depth or at least be able to watch that segment a dozen or so times. I believe a hundred or so years ago Hot Rod mag did an article, they referenced it once when I was a younger gearhead but it was back in the 90s when that article was run and when they mentioned it I was just out of high school (2000). I would like to comfortably be able to fit a 10 inch tire under my 66 without hacking the quarters up that I am putting on. Anyway any info will be greatly appreciated.
