F/R Different Size wheels?

[Pillow]

What do you all think about a set of stagered wheels for the 57 oval?

Here are the options:
1. 16x6 52mm Dish front / 16x7 65mm Dish rear (not stagered)

2. 15x6 52mm Phone Dial front / 16x7 23mm Deep Phone Dial rear


I have the Dish sets and the 15x6 Phones... Ran out of $ at the Hershey swap meet for the 16 Phones :(

I am torn on what would look "right" for the rear Oval window.

Also the Phones if used would be painted Guards Red to match the Black widow red "hourglass" which will be on the doors and/or roof.

Thanks!!!

My opinion doing a blind visualization:

That is what I am thinking as well Oasis.

The wife vetoed the "Black Widow" name, but the look will be the same with red/black accents.

The Oval will look a little raked which I guess is okay as well. Might drop the rear an extra spline to compensate :)

If memory serves me correctly there is an Oval in the UK running a similar setup, but I cannot remember who?

Thanks!

Oasis, are you headed for the Manassas BugOut this year?

Good question. I always plan on it, and something always gets in the way. Being so close, you would think it would be easy. May 27 and Sept. 2 should be good dates but we'll see.

I am contemplating a major change in my 1302 so while going to #61 (5/27) is 60/40, going with my Super is 20/80. Going to #62 (9/2) is probably 80/20 -- whether I will go with my Super depends on where I am with it.

My main goal is to have it ready for a Dyno Day near Toronto mid-August. How everything else falls into place is a big unknown.

Things have fallen into my lap nicely. I now rate being able to go 75|25 and with my 1302. I hope they'll take someone who didn't pre-register. :)
