CrazyDavey Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 A while back Jake and a few others asked to see pictures of the M/T ET Street Radials that I was putting on Monte. Well finally with Rod's help I think I can do this now so here it goes. The Monte is in the shop right now but these are the same tires on the Chevelle. Just wanted to test out my new skill!! Size 275/50/15/10.5 thx, Dave Quote

Size 275/50/15/10.5 thx, Dave Great looking car! Always been one of my favorites, and can't wait to see it in person.. I see you got the hang of it, I hope I didn't open-up Pandora's box? We need to meet, not this weekend! I have 8 hrs of cal-trans to do. Rod Quote
CrazyDavey Posted June 19, 2009 Author Posted June 19, 2009 I wasn't sure if it was cool to do that Phil. I have to say I'm pretty proud of it... Quote
Mo's70MCs Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 I wasn't sure if it was cool to do that Phil. I have to say I'm pretty proud of it... We allow "Chevelles" up in here! They're our lil sisters. Quote
AL M Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Looks great. I have the same tires on my 70...At 26 in tall it helps get a lil more outta the 355 gears...i believe that they have 10 in of tread and 11.5 section width though. Quote

I thought they were our "Parts Cars"??????/ I prefer "test mule", if it works on the Chevelle then I'll put it on the Monte... Quote

That's why I leave the tech stuff to the technicians. By the way you ain' right. Quote
Monteman1971 Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 I have the M/T 295/45 17's on mine.....11.6 tread, 27.1 inches tall...Great tire...without them the Monte is like a slip and slide..... My favorite body style on the Chevelle Dave........That and I lean towards the 69's too..... Quote
CrazyDavey Posted June 19, 2009 Author Posted June 19, 2009 We need more shots of the Chevelle Dave! okay I stand it, here's a few... I've had this car quite a while, it started us on the road to Monte.. Quote
502ci Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Don't you just love digging your finger nails in the M/T rubber as it is sooooo soft... For the record the 66 and 67 Chevelle are my favorite years... Bill Quote
CrazyDavey Posted June 19, 2009 Author Posted June 19, 2009 Nice...auto or stick? Turbo 400...2500 stall....3:42's Quote
AL M Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Well, if you wanna get real technical theyre 11.1 on a 8inch wide rim and add .2 for every 1/2 wider...LMAO!!! Too funny!! Quote
Heckeng Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 That is a very slick car! Tires look sweet too Quote
Chevyss Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Thanks Phil, I was about to ask Dave for more pics. Beautiful Chevelle and a close cousin to the Monte. Right?? Quote

Thanks everyone, you spend all that time (and $$) so it's really nice when folks notice. I really don't have any interior shots right now. The interior is restored but it's bone stock (except for the apporpriate gauges). I'll take some this weekend and add them to the post. I'll have some new ones of Monte too. Thanks again guys...Dave Quote
MADMAC Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 That looks really nice! There's a guy with a tranny shop down the way from me that has one like that; its a DEMON! to put it nicely... Quote
