guess wheel size? pic inside of 1979 monte + boss 338 wheels

[CruizinKev]

came across the attached pictures some time ago and really like the look. I was searching for 78/79 monte with boss 338 rims. I remember I found the pics on CL the car was for sale there. I know the pics are very blurry...
however I'm not sure who's car it is and I'm trying to determine the rim / wheel size. it looks like 20x8.5 front and 20x10 on rear? any thoughts or suggestions? thx in advance.

I also just googled around and found this:

"American Racing Thrust M, 20x10 rear and 20x8.5 front"

I photoshoped one of his pics - I lowered the car:

so now I really think the wheels in pic 1 & 2 are 20".

what you guys think?

found a 1978 monte carlo with 20" wheels:

so I took that pic and photshopped it:

so comparing the pics - my black monte looks like it has 20"

Those wheels are to big. It's starting to resemble a Donk. Go with 17" maybe 18" max.

That looks really good. Not that great for protouring but for just a driver it looks fine. Hey not all donks are bad chip foose even builds em.

I also thought about the 18/20 combo. here some other G-Bodys with the 18/20 combo:

I really like this (you can see the deep lip or the rears):

here's my photoshop of that last pic (lowered front):

Just runs 20s all around imo it looks better. You can get a staggered 20 also.
