Looks great Fred! 
with same od It may not be lower but the taller rim is closer to fender at top giving the eye a lower perspective .

Any rubbing issues with the wider tires?
Re: Let me start!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the positive comments guys.
I realise nobody will see the difference but it does look better.
Yes Johno the rim taking up more of the opening has the right effect.
Hey Jim the tire and rim are about an inch wider but there is also an inch more back space so clearances to the fender are still good, in fact an 8 inch rim with the right backspace will fit as well because of the spindle changes I've made,,, so,,,

I'd rather do it myself if it's done right or not,,,isn't that what hotrodding is all about
