most reproduction companies should have them, i know Classic Industries has them.

The one company i forget about thanks! :thumbsup: Any idea whats the biggest rubber you can get on 14 inch rims?

well... the biggest rubber i can fit on my 14" rim is... :eek:

i'll let that smart alleck reply pass by quietly :D

haha you rotten mother! I got the rims today and ive started to clean them up a bit ill post my results soon if anybody is interested. They are just rims but they're my summer project since i don't have much time.

HA !!! i saw the door open but had ta let that one go by :D

here ya go, this might help ya... it lists tire sizes that have been tried/fitted on ChevyII/Novas... scroll to see if there's anything that'd help ya ;)

i clicked on it and it wasn't working, maybe its traffic is too high today. it's a popular link, give it a bit and try it... i'm sure it'll work, maybe just a bit later on ;)

Yah its a little screwy right now but thanks! I sanded down one wheel and slapped some naval jelly on it. Cant do anymore at one time or else im going to melt outside

oh what a BigSissy !!!... get yer tail out there and MELT !!! :eek:


hehehehe ;)

You think i can get away with spraying some primer on the wheel it is now? Or should i slap another coat of stripper on? Some of that paint is being really stubborn! :mad: (I found some center caps btw 80$ on ebay :hurray: way better then 125$ new for each :thumbsup:)

well i don't claim to be a painter but i'd imagine if the wheels are clean (free of grease & oils) a good etching/sealer primer would be ok. i think if i was going to primer them i'd just go ahead and paint them at the same time and finish them off.


good luck to ya, post some pics when yer done so everyone can DROOOOOOL all over their computers ;)

for tires on those wheels .it would be 245-60-14.my brother had a set on his 78 nova .had the 245-60-14 on the rear and 225-60-14 0n the front on 7inch wheels

Chris if you want to haul them down here you can use my media blaster. I did 6 wheels so far, have two more to do. Takes about 10 minutes per wheel to bring them to bare metal.
