I currently have American Racing Torq Thrust IIs on my 69. The fronts are 17x7 and the rears are 18x8. I’m not a huge fan of “big” wheels and small sidewalls on 60s-70s cars. I also have a set of American Racing Outlaw 1 wheels, 15x7 front, and 15x8.5 rear. The 17/18s kinda grew on me a little bit, but I’m not a fan of how the car rides with them. I always liked the “Centerline” style wheel. I’d like to hear some opinions from people on wheel choice. What would you keep on the car?

I love Centerlines, but they really don't compliment Yellow... A darker color works better...

Gotta agree, those tires are pretty short... But I don't mind the wheels... Might look into a taller tire.....
 
Post #6 very good, 15" is the sweet spot... anything NOT 16,17,18,19,20 "... cragars, torq-thrust, slots, centerlines, keystones, etc. all faves of the era... pick one in a 15" size and enjoy !
 
Yellow is a tough color for wheels. Magnums, Keystones, or grey Tork-thrust would be best. Like my cream colored Bee. Very few wheels looked good on it.
