17's on a 1962 Valiant Wagon

17's aren't big wheels Dan, they are the beginning of an era where 14 and 15 inch tires are either hard to find, hard to get or hard on your pockets. I could understand your feeling towards 20 or 22 inch wheels yet not as an update to your vehicle where another person finds its easier to replace than to spend 2 weeks at a motel waiting for your tire to arrive while stuck in the desert.

My personal belief is that 17's look a heck of a lot better than reversing the shackles on a Mopar which persons have done for many years.

Sorry Dan, but some of your thoughts are outdated maybe you should try a little BC bud and relax..
