no offense meant here, but those wheels look like **** on that car. i don't mind a 16/17" wheel that's got a sidewall to the tire on it.

the hooptie wheel / rubberband look just isn't right on the rwd cars. that and the fact that if you drove that car at any speed around here you wouldn't have to worry about what the wheels looked like because they'd be junk from the roads making flat spots on them.

the only wire wheel,imo, that looks good on a 60's car are the old kelsey hayes 20 spokes, and there's no way i'd want to clean them.
