Longhood narrow body, Wheels, Stance pictures

There seem to be some love for large flared fenders lately. But let's show some love for longhood stock narrow body.
Please post some picture of Longhood stock narrow body wheels and stance. It would be nice if you can provide spec of wheels size, width, offset, tire size, ride height, camber etc...

'70 with 195/65-15 on 15x7 Fuchs all round. Have to look up specs, pretty sure Euro ride height but don't recall camber or toe off the top of my head.

Side profile, wheel/tire choice, and stance look great for all these builds.

Ever drive behind a stock (narrow) long-hood on the freeway? Mesmerizing….

Love them all. Want to do a small wing on my '72. I think the RS wing might be 'too much' for the narrow body. I would like something 'smaller'. Any not-flared earlies with wings out there? I want to stuff the biggest tire I can under the rear, debating whether I will roll the lip to achieve that...

You’ll be limited without rolling the lip. You’ll be limited with rolling the lip, honestly. Bill Verburg can guide you with his experience and NIH-
level data and PRE-H20 can demonstrate the dark arcane wizardry of Tyson Schmidt.
To each his own, but I’ve never thought a wing of any ilk looks appropriate on a NB (No offense to PRE-H2O). Beyond the aesthetics, I question the utility (especially the smaller ducks, etc.) with anything other than a considerable bump in power over stock.

Jac1976....... no offense taken in the slightest.......... i absolutely LOVE the early tail i threw on the back of my car 15 years ago (i wish i would have done it 25 years ago).....

i know its purely for looks, no real advantage to having it back there.... i dont care.. i just love the way it looks... at the end of the day... yes... to each his/her own, mine includes the rare early tail.

happy motoring fells !

Erik,

All these years later, with all these blank check builds all over the place, your '67 is still stunning and just so RIGHT!
