Thanks, Jesse.  More then anything, I wanted to try the 1 1/2" to 1 5/8" "step" design to
add some bottom-end torque and crispness.  So far, I'm happy! Smiley

Sidewinders have their place, but in my mind not on a cal looker! Grin

At least they weren't the black plastic ones!

I have a pair of SB12s for my 67... unfortunately, I sanded them down and painted them to match my body 30 years ago when SB12 were all over the place.

I had a '67 project car at one time when I was nearing the end of high school that had SB12 rings on the front fenders... at the time I had no idea what the big deal was, and it was long before the Samba (or any other web sites) was around...lol.
