cool rims

here's a couple cool rims that would look great on any pre 1970 cars... #1 is Crager Pro Street 390 Gray, #2 Crager Elimator, #3 American Racing Salt Flat Gray, #4 A/R Salt Flat Polished, #5 A/R Shelby Cobra {edgier look}, #6 Crager SS {old stand by}, #7 Rocket Racing Radir Igniter, #8 R/R Radir RPM, #9 Good old Halibrands, I have them on my 68 RM23 RR...

Damn Buds, i like your choice in rim styles...we guna have to talk. lol

Funnycar: i think it looks bada$$ as it sits. but, i hear ya, you been lookin at them a while probably, want somethin new and different...

how bout color matched steelies with a nice dish on it???
 
tub tires or regular tires next question
could be the cragers s/s
 
You probably already know this but, if you go with a modern or even a radial type tire, tubes are obsolete, usually only with a bias-ply style tires &/or slicks with liners & tubes... that they/tubes are needed, IMHO anyway
 
That car screams for a polished or chrome wheel. It will really set off the color. Cragars are cool, but I have memories as a kid with their chrome peeling off. especially around the lug nuts. I like any of the wheels posted by Budnicks.
 
I don't think the old Keystone classics would hurt the looks of your car a bit, They have the dark look with some chrome for a touch of sparkle to go with them.. Ive seen many with steel rims and chrome lug-nuts that look great on these models to, some gloss black (my favorite) and some with the same color of the car.. As hard to pick out one wheel now a days as it is when your painting a car, there's so many shades of beautiful colors to choose from!
