Default Honeycomb wheels on 1970 gto any pic's out there

I know it s not correct but I am thinking of putting 15 X 7 honneycomb on my 1970 GTO. I have not seen a 70 gto at my local shows with them. If any one has pictures could you post them. Thanks

Here's a shot of the front end of a 70, sorry the 71 is in the way of the rear. Both of these car are set up for a guy in a wheel chair to drive, taken at 2005 GTO Nats

They don't look bad. I always thought they looked good on the 71 & 72s and never considered the 70.

Isn't the draw back with these wheels is they weigh like a 1000 lbs? They do look pretty good.

Hey sharkbite, those are 15x8 snowflakes, not honeycombs.
