    Well, not new wheels really, but I powder coated them.
    I think it fits the look better.

    It's not exactly but definitely gives off the vibe of old mag drag wheels. It's got that mid 60's all thrills not frills look now. A great improvement.

    MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better! What are the rear wheels though? Something flipped around backwards?

    I almost did the same thing on a set of American Racing "Hopsters" that I had on a '00 Tahoe once. I hated polishing the damn things. On a low, black Tahoe I thought they would look good. Shoulda done it.

    Nice car! Not that it means anything but I'm not digging the wheels.

    They kinda do give a 60's vibe.

    I like it. The motor kinda sticks out now though. Not that that is a bad thing.

    Great looking car but the wheels are boring. Just my opinion.
