good luck putting those on..i would say you would most likly have to lift it and for sure cut out the inner fender lips.. i had trouble fitting 17's on mine without doing anything.

don't do it...and what size tire is that guy with a 64 1/2 using? i have a 67 and i'd have to roll and work the inner skin to fit a desent size tire. plus 18's on your year will almost look like 20's cause you wheel well is smaller that's why most guy's your year stick with 17's


just my .02
