Good info, it’s 1000 ways to put wheels on the car it’s all about what are you looking for (show car) or (street Cruiser) Most important thing is getting the right wheel fitment for your car
How is the ride? Feel bumps? Stiff? I know the less tire, the harsher the ride, do the air shocks help? I don’t want to compromise the ride to just look good.
i have an 04 crown vic police interceptor. i want to put 26s on them. what else i need to do to make sure i dont have future transmission problems or rear end problems?
Not changing the rear end gear with bigger wheels or tires is where a lot of people go wrong. Bigger wheels require a higher gear. That’s where the trans problems come from
Great video with some good information…I have a 1974 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible, that is fwd. I put some 22 inch Rucci wheels, do I need to put on some rear trailing arms to eliminate the little scrubbing that I have?
You mean to tell me that you did ALL of those upgrades, made ALL of those suspension modifications and didn't put some type of big brakes on it???? You do realize that stopping is important as well don't you?
you dont need BIG brakes. he could just do an s10 rear disc conversion and that will be more than enough to stop the car with the proportioning valve adjusted correctly. everyone wants to spend 3000.00 on wilwood and baer brakes. way too much money for something like this
@@KingJT80 Yo.... all y'all need to realize and recognize that the bigger the rims are, the bigger the brakes NEED to be in order to stop your ride without rollin' 1000 feet BEFORE stopping.... nah'mean??? Besides, if you spendin' that much money on upgrades and modifications, $3000 ain't shit to spend.... nah'mean!!!!
Byron Brown Man you don’t know what you’re talking about you don’t need no big brake kit just because you put wheels on your car, unless you’re running 1000 hp motor or something it’s all about the look people see those big brakes and they know thats money that’s the only reason
@@xaviermcfadden1nah, might be expensive but bigger brakes are always a way better decision when installing bigger wheels bruh, it doesn't have to be all that expensive but you want to always know that the correct braking power is there if needed, every guy I know that has upgraded to big wheels and didn't do the brakes ended up hitting something at some point because the car wouldn't stop in time. Always remember, bigger wheels require better brakes,,,plus,,,,,drum brakes are just shit and horrible to look at,,,,I hate em
Could you assist me if possible? I Volunteer for Compton Veterans and I'm trying to get my old school ready for Parades and Veteran Ceremonies. I have 22" Rims that are universal Rims. But they don't fit on the Lugs of the 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix Model J, what can I do, to get them to fit. What's the Process.
This is soo helpful. I have a 84” Monte Carlo ss and I purchased 24’ Rucci’s and they’re staggered it was touching the frame the back rims. So adapters didn’t work at all. So I’m going to go with air shocks. So will that help me and make sure it don’t touch ? Or do I need to get my car notched??
Your back space is wrong...if a wheel is custom made i think a 5in.lip is the biggest you can get on a g body without getting any cutting or a notch to yhe frame...where you dont need adaptor/spacers...u must of gave rucci the wrong measurements....but but them being the maker of the wheel if u told them u wasn't notching the frame they should hv known how to cut the wheel...
@@milesservices7373 I had to get my car notched and tucked for my rims to fit. Only because I didn’t get the Custom made for my car. So if you are willing to spend $5000 I suggest you to get them specially made for the car so you won’t have to do a lot to the car to get them to fit. I paid $5000 for my wheels and they were not custom I just wanted to hot wheel city and bought the rims
Lol whole rear end brakes suspension it all needs redoing. Them little brakes now have huge rotation al mass to stop. Brakes are now a joke. Car will always ride luke shit as tires havev1 Inc sidewall. Any pit hole rui s those wagon wheels. Sorry there is no corre tvway to.put on street legal car RIGHT.

Did you notch your frame
I just put mine on from Universal list and my pinion angle won't get right
Trying to get my lift and suspension right for my 71 Monte with my mechanic. Please help - I'm willing to pay....
How much did your mechanic cut off the upper control arms I'm having a hard time with my pinion angle
They look like adjustable upper trailing arms they probably an inch longer than stock ones.
A lot to go thru for a look...ijs
