Customs Lets see your custom car with steel wheels!

I did a search, and didn't see a thread about custom cars running steelies... So let's see some pics of your 50's rides with them... Whether you're running hubcaps, spider caps, trim rings or painted with some chrome bullet lugs! I'm getting ready to paint some OEM Steel Rims with wide whites for my 1953 Chevy and looking for some inspiration and color ideas! Thanks in advance!

 

Here's a different approach!

 

This is my 58 Morris Minor with steelies and early Ford caps. Wheels painted Allis Chalmers orange.

 

15 x 6 with 41 Ford hubcaps and Mercury 15" ribbed trim rings.

Seriously? 99% of the cars on this site have steel wheels.

 

Not a custom but has 15 inch steel wheels with dog dish caps.

 

My 53 150 painted steel 14"s

 

Does a 1962 F-100 with steelies count ? If so next I need to learn how to post pictures again, it's been a long time since I posted here...

He said Custom Cars..

 

Yes seriously... No need to get your panties in a bunch... Keep the Jackass comments to yourself... Like HDOnly Bob stated... I said "Custom Cars" and not "Hot Rods" For inspiration... But apparently you don't know what that means... I'm Pretty sure 99% of the cars on this site aren't 50's customs, like I stated in my original post... But thanks for your useless input.

 

Of course! I love a good set of Chromies! Looking good man! Thanks for posting!


Keep the pics coming Everyone!!!

 

You've already got some Chrome Steelies pics but I thought I'd throw my set in as well................andyd

 

Old steelies, with patina, and chrome rings with new studs and chrome lug nuts.

 

I can see there is a wide interpretation of Custom but we all know what Steel Wheels are. I think I'm safe when it comes to the Wheel part.

Hood and trunk emblems are shaved so it must be a custom.

 

A little sensitive aren't we? Good luck with your inspiration bud.

 

Customs run other than steel wheels?

 

Haha good one man. Yeah, there's plenty of customs that run Mag wheels, Astros, cragars etc... depends what era you're looking for. I'm just curious to see what color steel wheels guys are running based on what color they painted their car. Looking for some inspiration pics for when I paint my car.

 

I'm liking the copper rims! Looks good man!

 

Yep, can't beat spiders and trim rings! Looks great. Thanks for posting.

 

100% of the cars on this site have round wheels too a lot of us cover our steel wheels with hubcaps and never get to show off the steels. Don't be a keyboard hero, if you have nothing good to say, nobody is asking for your opinion. I'll play along.....some are from my archives

 

I'm Really digging that Shoebox and Chevy Coupe! Thanks dude!

Here is my contribution. Bill

 

I like full wheel covers.. Steel wheels with full hub caps.. Nobody runs full wheel covers anymore and there are 1,000's of cool ones out there....
