OCC Bonneville Seat Swap / Bravada Console Install

I have 255/60/15s on 7.5 inch rims, and have plenty of space for 9 inch wide rims. I know 10 inch rims will not fit. The wheels you have may be offset less than the stockers, which added to the body offset, can cause interference. 245/60/15s should throw your speedo off substantially as well. They are only 26 inches tall vs the 255/60s at 27, and the 225/75s at 28 inches.

Yup, they are 245/60/15's. I have not hooked up the GPS to see how far its off...but I suspect about 5MPH. The tires came with the wheels and only had 5k on them, so I can live with it for now. Next set will not be this size though

Looks great, Chris! I dig the "period" wheels on it, too! Those Mike's old wheels?

(I have 9.5" wheels on mine... )

Lol..you called it. Yes those are his old wheels!

What do you guys that run these floor console conversions do with your stock column shifter. Is there something you do to clean up the steering column so it doesn't look odd when you remove the shifter?

Check this out...you can see what he did with his column. (same thing I plan to do)

Thanks, Chris! Makes perfect sense to me. When I am ready to graduate from the $3.99 Advance Auto floor console conversion (cupholders) in my car, this will be a great resource.

Bump age so I can reference this easily, as Ruby is getting this interior make over. Front seats only for now, but rears to follow, as I want to try to make the flip down work and I'm on a time crunch
