Generally I do not like to see 22"s on classics, but this car looks great with them.

IMO, a set of 15" Rally Wheels with flat caps would look a whole lot better.

I'd give the car and A, the wheels a C minus. They don't make the car look bad, just kind of pimped out flashy. Plus potholes like we have in Pa would smash those wheels to pieces.

Looks nice, but I also prefer classic wheels on a classic car. This wheels would rather fit a Chrysler 300C or Dodge Charger 2010.

Well now , Pimp my ride. It looks like crap with those 22's. I love the way it shows off those puny brakes.
Some guys really know how to make a nice classic look like a POS.

Send some more photos when it is bouncing up and down like a clown car.

lol u guy are hilarious keep it coming. I expect nothing less from the older generation but everyone has there taste. I just hate the stock 15'' setup on any classic car. I quess you hate it when Chip Foose and Boyd Coddington finish there cars with larger 20'' + wheels also?

Thumbs up on the car, thumbs down on the wheels. Some 15" rallies with white lettered tires would look a million times better.

The old set are cool, but they are outdated (Boyds, rights?) and the new set is nice and fits the car nice too, but looks kinda hood. Just my opinion man not putting down you or your ride
All that matters is that YOU like em!
