Tie rods rubbing into the insides of tires...?
I got a 72 nova with drum brakes all around.
I got 14x7 "6-vent" 2nd generation Rally's on the front and back. Alingments don't help. Spacers make my steering wheel wobble too much. Should I change spindles? or rim sizes? thanks b

I had a '72 a few years ago...put the 14x7 rally's on it....same exact problem!!
I ended up putting a couple 1/4" spacers on each side..never had any vibration problems. I thought the spacers were hack, so I ended up ordering two wheels from Wheel Vintiques with a 1/2" offset from stock..

I guess I just have too much appreciation for the steering...It is pretty important to me.
I once saw a guy grind a steering shaft down to a smaller diameter, to help clear a header tube.... [ October 02, 2002: Message edited by: SirSpeedy ]</p>

sir speedy, how much did the 2 wheels cost you?
did the 1/2 inch offset work well?

I'm thinking around $45 each. That was a few years ago.
Early Wheel, Stockton Wheel, and Wheel Vintiques all sell custom diameters, widths, bolt patterns, and offsets of the GM rally wheel.
