65 Belvedere wheels?

[cashes65]

I am going to change my wheels on my 65 from torque thrust, steelies to an aluminum wheel for racing. I am not a good visualizer and would like to see some options on other peoples cars. Pics, opinions whatever you have post em up please, Thanks

I've seen your 65 with what you have on it looks real good , I'm partial to old school racing wheels. Super Tricks would look great on your 65.

Thanks NOMAX I like it too until I weight the wheels, YIKES rears with drag radials each weigh about the same as my old racecars weld hoosier combos set of 4. I am taking a rather low buck approach to bracket racing an expensive car, my best bang for the buck have been to save weight and multiply gear and converter, just don't want to make a mistake with the wrong wheels.

Mine are heavy. But you've got to look good. It stills goes OK though, 9.25@147.7

I love that 64 dvw but im lacking heavily under the hood. What do you guys think of these new weld rt-s 75s 12 14 ish lbs

The weight won't effect you that much! Unsprung weight, Go with what you like best! A polished wheel will brighten up the look for a dark color!

why don't you powdercoat an old set of centerlines to look like your steelies on the rear

Before I changed to all steelies.

 

[cashes65]

Are those autodrag centerlines or American racing wheels ram2500?

 

[ram250098]

They were the centerlines..not a big fan of them..love the steelie look much better.
