'70 Cutlass SX with 17" inch rims, looking for tire size suggestions
I recently acquired a set of SS1s that Wheel Vintiques did as 17" and was curious what those with '70s and 17" were running for tires? also any pictures?

Thanks,
Michael

Here is a picture of a 1972 Cutlass Supreme I used to have that had 17". I think it looked great. 17x9.5 rear wheels 17x8

Was that car lowered any?
Have 2" drop springs for my 71, and am trying to decide what tires will work.
