Customs Lets see those red wheels!!

Who told ya that, certainly not someone that was there! I sure as hell never saw any "pale" any color. They were all factory color or red. That's traditional!

 

More red wheels. I think they look pretty good on a black car.

 

I like red wheels, especially on a black '40 Standard coupe (see avatar)!

Ignore most of 'em, they're just showing off.

 

All the haters drinkin the hateraide... shouldn't it be about whatever turns yur crank? If everyone did their cars up the exact same way they might as well go to the dealership and order the same cookie cutter car as everyone else. Just my two cents worth...

<-- Here's mine, red wheels and all. If you like it cool, if you don't that's cool too. It don't confront me cause I like it and since it's mine and it's paid for that's all that matters to me. Okay that was four cents worth.

 

But YOU opened it!

I originally opened this just to see how many guys have nothing better to do than bitch about red wheels. I was surprised to see as much support for the OP as there is.
Then another guy suggested, "just put wide whites on it and forget about it".
Aren't wide whites "the new red wheels"

 

Here are some old pictures before I chromed the grille.It is getting some blue and chrome General jumbo wheels next.Darrell

 

This is a nice one!

 

Guess I'll play, autumn maple red with ruined retina red metal flake over a silver base.

 

How about this POS....

 

Oh my! Red wheels....oh well, I like them... and that's all that matters.
Steve-

 

Got a pic before with the original white and after showing red with caps.
I wouldn't have done red wheels if the trim didn't have the red.
Saying red wheels is played out goes with saying louvers on a hood are unoriginal too.
Its a symbol of what we call hot rods.

 

Red is certainly better than billet.

I was leaning that way but I'm going to match the maroon body.

 

Here are mine on a not so friendly 1957..Sorry guys!!

First thing I painted on mine. I'll paint the rest of it when I get a round tuit...

 

That A coupe looks good with those red wheels!

 

What we need is a few more "up close" and "in your face" pictures of red steelies....
I like them...

 

Can you tell the name of the green on the five window in post #139?

It kinda/sorta looks like the green oin the new Fiat 500's but a little richer and darker. Anyone know a name?

 

Red wheels are sick. Its either black, chrome or red wheels for me.

 

Dark "Fast Red" rims on mine & I'm very happy with them:

 

Im thinking about a wheel color change....maybe red ?

 

my Studebaker has a red roof and black wheels with red pinstripes on the wheels...

 

Red works for me too...

Sorry I saw that photo and had to post it!

 

Does that header blow in the side window????

 

I know the red wheel has been played out. I would think about it but on the right car sure. My last 2 cars wheels were orange, and burnt copper. Exceptions when running a full size hubcap and wide white tire I think the red ring of the wheel really sets it off.

 

Traditional BLACK with RED wheels.

 

My wheels at the moment sporting 1946 Pontiac dog dish caps.



Had them two toned before too red/black about 6 years ago

 

Just dont paint your grille red like the original poster
