Anyone running chrome reverse wheels in their 67-69 barracuda's ? I have a sick obsession with those old school wheels but never see them on the barracuda's
I seem to put chrome reverse on all my cars but never actually seen a barracuda with them on it.. i was born in the wrong era i guess lolWe were talking on another thread about the good old days. Well in the good old days, there wasn't the choice of wheels we have today. Pretty much you ran Chrome reverse and some guys ran them with baby moons. After all who could afford Hillebrand magnesium wheels?
I think thats the way i am gonna head with my 69 barracuda notchbackHell you ain't gotta sell me. I love the look! Always have.
I had mine sandblasted
and painted body color
for my 63 dart
chrome was crap
just for the back
14x7 4 inch bolt pattern

I never had but one vehicle w/ chrome reverse and baby moons, and it was stolen and never recovered. I like them !Yup, did the same...old chrome so painted them...They look great!!
Just couple weeks ago I bought a set of chrome reverse for my 67 barracuda (rear wheels 15x7) primarily for the custom backspacing - 4-5/8" when I picked them up the guy had them on 68 barracuda with a 67 B body 8-3/4 rear end. Exact combination I had - what are the chances of that.Anyone running chrome reverse wheels in their 67-69 barracuda's ?

Fit perfect I had 225/70/15 tires mounted as that is what I had. Can go wider and will keep my eyes open but on budget so these will have to do for now.
Have same size tire on front with torque thrust rimes and 3" backspacing. May have interference once I put my engine in. Am planing to have to go to 205/60 or something of that nature. I will wait until complete so that I do not buy too many wheels and tires. I will keep my eye out for chrome reverse for front also.
Like the looks so far.
I just bought this 69' that has what I believe are 14x6 chrome reverse wheels that were painted black by the previous owner because they got rusty. The original caps were put on as well.Anyone running chrome reverse wheels in their 67-69 barracuda's ? I have a sick obsession with those old school wheels but never see them on the barracuda's
