Cragar SS are my favorite wheels. No pics except in my dirty little mind. More will chime in on their favorite with pics.

Cragars will stand out more. Is that what you are looking for? ET Classic V looks more 'drag strip' style, but a lot more sedate...assuming you are going unpolished spokes.

I would vote for ET Classic V because they look like my favorite the Torq Thrust D. They make a Torq Thrust with gray centers like the Classic V which is what I always liked.

A choice between the two top styled wheels of all-time in my book. Cragar a slight edge over Torque-Thrust D... but, either of them... excellent.

Both excellent choices--but it seems I see Cragars on 60% of the cars at cruises--personally, other than the dog dish/cop car caps, I always liked the Sox/Martin choice of Keystones.
I actually like the look of your car with the hub caps, that's a nice car.
If I had to pick between the two I would go with the Cragar s/s, They where cool in the 60's and still are today.

ET Classic V

I'll throw in my 2 cents. I'd go with the polished ET Classic V. They are period correct looking and have a sharper looking spoke than current Torques. The Classic V are truer looking to the original torque thrust mag. With that sculpted from granite body I think the sharp polished spokes will look awesome and make it standout more.
Bottom line your car, your decision and your wallet. Good luck and enjoy it as much as you can.

I definatly want old school rims on the car and Cragar and ET aside from looking good fot the period being original companies.
Does anyone have any pics to share? or even a half assed ability to photo shop? I had Cragars on my Duster and they where perfect just not sure if I want to be a bit different on the Belvedere.
I don't hate the hub caps just feeling a little to bland
