I have noted in the past when I would have oversize wheels, (ex: 16" with large tire size, my front turns would cause rubbing into the pitman arm.

I am in the process of putting together parts needed for my 67 D100 shorty.

(Please think budget when contemplating needed comments/answers.)

I have a trade going where I will end up with 4 gorgeous chrome style american racing 15" rims. (low dollar and a good deal)

PROBLEM is: they are all 4 an 8" width.

The fat look balance of front to rear will be fine with me as I can fatten up the rear and thin down the front with tire size.

First question is,.... Will I have much variety of sizes to chose from due to the known sweptline rub problem when turning lock to lock?

Second question is,... Is the rim so over/wide that the 8" wide is to big of an obstacle to even start with?
