They look era-appropriate(sp). Better than slapping some Corvette replica's on it. I think they look fine on there.

I agree fully with your statement about "throwing on Corvette replica's". In my opinion, nothing looks worse.

OP, the more I look at the wheels, the more I like them. Digging the big lip on the rears.

This is my third time coming into this thread (3rd post too) and the more I see these wheels, the more I like them. OP, if you don't mind posting, what did you pay for them? By the way, beautiful car and great pics.
