i have been debating on some new wheels but i cant decide i like most of the torq thrust style wheels and there are a bunch of them and then there is this other wheel that i like also. i cant decide.
i like 17in and i like the 15in so that sucks that i cant decide.

you can vote on size and type
#1
this is what is on the car. but i painted the center

#2
this is another option very similar but with machined lip and newer style
View attachment 437876

#3
this is a totally diff style and i like them but they are not what i think would look good but others say otherwise.
View attachment 437878

#4
this is the one i really like but i cant picture them on that car in my head well. i would put these on there if i decided to be ballsy one day. i have been told they would "make" my car.

Go for a 15 inch magnum 500 with standard factory size in front, but a 15x10.5/11 in the rear with M/T Street radials.

that would look good if it wasn't a GT. thinking similarly though, a 15" GT wheel in 15x7 front and like 15x9 rear (or wider) with GT caps and chrome outer hoop and argent painted center would looks awesome. throw some BFG drag radials on the back and go to town.

I like the 15 inch wheels on classics. Big wheels and rubber band tires just don't do it for me. I hate the pimp look.

I really like the look of the wheels that are on the car now. I would stick with a 15 inch wheel, but would love to see some wider rears. Great looking car by the way, my favorite is the one from the rear.

i cant go too much wider in the rear but i can play with the offset a little to get a sligtly larger tire, the ones on there are 14in so i think 15 would be great. thanks

Go for the ballsy choice. I did on my 70 Grande' and I don't have a single regret!

I would run either 17's or 18's with as wide as possible 40 series rubber and hunker the car down around them. Its all about stance and I personally prefer a more modern agressive look than the total classic look. Like I did to my Mustang...
