You want to go back with "Regular" Grand Sport ones or something different??
The "For Sale" side has lots of options

From what I’ve heard and seen in the wide body bundles 20x12 &19x10 but I am not in a big hurry since I’m waiting for the rear end as well as a less noisy pump,the engine is built.Here’s what it had before I went full tard with supervettes
