Ahhhh. I remember the day I snapped that photo of Tone's SS. He was happy as hell the way the pics came out...That was before the drop. You gotta go 22's on a G.
Tone after the 2" drop up front/1.5" drop out back.. LOL! My sons all up in the pic..

What are all the specs on that set up bro? And how bad do They rub? sh*ts hella clean. The SS can eat up a pair of 22s, they look right, I Thought they were a lil too much on my cutty.
I'm lookin to buy an SS in the near future and want a similar setup to them pics
Just too clean.

On my El- tire was a 22/30/45 nexxus or something like that. Rears rubbed when turning into a steep driveway. Easy fix tho. I have the conquista trim and the wheel are spaced out. Just a lil trimming on the mouldings will tak care of that. The front rubbed a lil. "U" turns are out of the question. HAHA! Same for the SS. Now TTop ran some Falken FK-452 tires. Same size but his tread pattern was sick as hell! made the tire profile look lower. I drove his and had very lil rub on l/r turns. He's dropped 2"f and 1.5" rear. His rears are rolled also. My SS is a lil lower. I never put the car on the road with the irocs to see what it did.

I feel you dlo, Cutlass' have way different wheels wells. I believe our wheel wells are way narrower than any other G body. 22"s could probably fit at stock height but not so sure about lowered. I love the look of the 22" wheels. Then at times they look too big. I actually thought about just keeping the hubcaps and whitewalls, keeping it ultra clean. Then I'm like damn wheels would set it off. Honestly best looking Cutlass I ever seen had 20"s on it. It's that black Cutlass with the Grand National motor in it. I would get the same wheels and call it a day. They are Diablo Delta Force wheels and they are no longer made.

Not to threadjack, but the best looking Cutlass ever is/was on 22s.
