Guys,
Has anyone seen these wheels in person? How do you think they'd look on an A Body?

Looks like they are big bolt only !! I personally think any time you can put a Magnum 500 style on an A body , which they were never made for , they look great. Just most A-bodies don't have a very large wheelwell.

Yeah...having a "late" A-Body, I sometimes take the 4.5" bolt pattern for granted. I can see that these wouldn't be an option for many of you guys. Sorry about that.

I agree about the Magnum 500 style looking great...I'm still trying to walk that line with period-correct looks and modern tire options. These seem like one possible route, especially in black as they might hide the proportions a bit better than some modernized classic styles.

As I complain regularly, there are essentially no DOT legal 15" tires in the 60 series range that are suitable for all around performance. Radial T/A squeal-easies are getting old.
