Nah, I don't think chrome and brown are a very good match.

Yeah chrome does clash like crazy with brown. I'd go with something silver, maybe polished but definitely not chrome.

The chrome clatches to badly with the color. Silver would look a lot better imo.

Before I spent the money on wheels, I'd save up alil more and repaint it. The body looks good, so it shouldn't take much to prep it for a paint job.

I had 2 Stangs almost that same color. They looked a bit more copper. One was a vert. Both were 84's.
Oh yea sorry,, NAH on the chrome. I think the satndard 16" Pony's would look good.

yeah ryan silver ones or polished would look good. but in my opinion the good ole ponies would look good until you can do a five lug and get pretty much any rim you want. it's either that or save up and paint you car so you can get those if you really like those. also you should follow your gut if you like it do it if you don't, don't

That car would look great with the stock Pony wheels or even the TRX wheels (if you can find tires) with the car repainted the same color. But no, the chrome wheels would not look good, nor would the blue paint in my opinion.

I second that, but foremost do the car to please yourself. Don't do whatever the most people say if it's really not what you want.

Then dont get the wheels above because those are really common.

Eww, not a fan of that!

Get the car painted, then ask about wheels. Asking now when we all know nothing is going to happen seems pointless.

You should do the exact opposite of what your dad did. Paint your car silver with blue stripes. That would be a cool father / son thing
