Default A&C Build

Hello.
Just found this forum .... I have been building an A&C Cobra since Nov 2009 (not that long!).

I have built up a 521 CU BBF (stroked 460), Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed, Holley Fuel Injection....

I want to order the body later this month.....

Anyway, wheels are my issue right now.
I put Wilwood front disc brakes on the front and Willwood on the rear as well.
My understanding is that the front actuallly moves out 1/2 inch on each side according to Wilwood. But the rear should not have changed.

So I assume I need an extra 1/2 inch of backspace for the front wheels so everything lines up right?

I'd like to run 17 inch wheels with something like a 315 series on the rear.

Does anyone have any comments about wheels, clearances, etc?

What kind of wheels are people using on theirs? I have been looking at TeamIII Halibrand replicas perhaps?

Thanks!
