I agree, painting the first wheel choice (#1) the dark gunmetal to match the paint on the front bumper works well with the body paint choice and the square body lines.

Just went and looked at a beautiful set of 10 double spoke 300C wheels today (local Craig's list). Cast lettering into back of the spokes identified them as 17X7s. Answering a question asked earlier in this thread, the back spacing over the bead flange to the mounting pad was 6". Would have...

I agree, there's no accounting for taste sometime. To the OP; pick something YOU like and remember, it's not the wheel diameter that's critical, it's the overall wheel/tire diameter (it has to fit in your vehicle's wheelwells) along with overall width, back spacing (offset), tire size, and...

Ugly is ugly, and just being different won't make it any more attractive, regardless of any desire to follow the latest fad (large diameters in this case). There were hundreds of aftermarket wheels of many different types commercially offered to the buying public during the muscle car era...

I posted this on here a couple of weeks ago in another thread; I have found with 235/60s (TAs) on stock 15/7s (cop car wheels in my case) mounted to a Duster (Valiants/Scamps use the same front fenders), you need to trim the the corners back (roughly at a 45) on the flat flange ahead of the...

This subject has been covered many times so there is much info to be found if you do a search. I do know from experience that 235/60s with 15/7 cop car wheels on a Duster will require the horizontal flange on the front corner of the front wheel openings trimmed back at an angle and possibly...

90 minutes after I sold my 67 Coronet 2dr post (converted to discs and a 383 and riding on a set of cop car wheels) I knew I'd made a mistake! Along the same lines, with a 74 Swinger in the yard, and me trying to talk my neighbor into selling me his black 72 Swinger, it's not too likely I'm...

Oh, I almost forgot. Caliber wheels are UGGGLLLLEEEEE!

Well, all right then. Future Mustang wheels aside, I do like mine, though. Even though I plan to replace my current wheels with late model Mustang and I have acquired (gift) a set of 17 X 8s, I don't know if they will clear the steering arm and might need to run 18s, 9" wide if I can get...

Like the 73AbodEE, I'm finding it hard to understand exactly what your question is. Are your existing wheels bent, broken, gone, have worn out or no tires, or are they just painted the wrong colour? Here are a few thoughts from someone that's owned their Duster for some 20 odd years. The car...

If your Dart has been fitted with 4.5" bolt pattern hubs and axles, even the 15 X 7 cop car wheels will fit if you're careful about the size tires you run. A friend of mine runs those very wheels with 225/50s on his Dart 4 door, but I don't know what brand or model the tires are. That said...

Tweek the mounting tangs just enough to make the side of the tang in the direction of travel dig in a little deeper, sometimes that's enough. If that doesn't work, screw a pair of small self tapping screws into matching holes you've drilled in the rim on either side of one the mounting tangs, a...

Cop wheels used to be the poor mans way into wider wheels, I used to get them for 7 to 10 bucks apiece at the pick-a-parts. Sturdy as hell, if they are straight, they'll probably stay that way short of a massive contact with a curb. Major drawbacks now are their weight (about 28 lbs), four...

Regardless of where you get them or even what brand/model/style, even if you can get a 9" wheel/tire combination up into the wheelhouse of your particular A body without rubbing (don't forget they need to go as high into the wheelhouse as they would be at full jounce), these with almost seven...
