I have a 1970 Mustang Mach 1 color is yellow w/black Mach 1 striping. I currently have the original 14" steel rims with the styled hub caps. I want to change to rims and go with a larger size. Possibly 15's or 16's, but would like advice for sizes. I am kind of partial to the Magnum 500's original styling and the billeted.

I am asking for input from everyone as to what will sizes would work best? What style of rims would look great? Don't have to limit to the Magnum 500's but they seem to match the care well from pictures and cars I have seen. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Also, is there a wheel size chart for the '70 Mustangs?

Thank you

Check out link below - I have 225 50's 15x7 up front and 245 15x8 in back - like the look - Seen 255s in back and would have went with that if Iknow they would fit w/o rubbing. I've got a 1970 sportsroof.
