big wheels

old tired rebel said

I don't plan to drag race my car. I have nothing against old school. I'm almost 50 and I like some of the newer stuff. Like I stated my car is a daily driver and I will be making changes to be more comfortable,stop better,handle better and a few other things.

Yep, same age over here. I seen a Caddy crossover with 225/65/18 wheels, they look great and the tires were not that low profile.

Some big old cars are closer to crossovers then cars today. A car today is flimsy, lightweight and most have a tiny engine--3 to 4 liters.

You have to ask if all these wheels would had been around and legal to use back in the 1960's, would the factory still went with 14--15 inch wheels, I think not. Not sure if 20 inch would had won but 16--17 yeah.

Big wheels can help make the car look newer--more expensive, IMO

As for old school, I'm keeping my dual quads and want nothing to do with F.I.
