I don't have a picture of it but one of my former club members has a yellow 70 RR with refinished Mirada wheels. It was a very nice looking combo. These are the wheels:  Greg moved to Dayton, OH so someone up there may have seen the car.
We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind.

I picked up a set of these wheels today at the junkyard - were on a 78 Cordoba - I think they are funky looking - wondering how they would look on my car without buying tires for them and putting them on and then hating it - what center caps would they have had???

Aluminum Wheels are lighter, yet not as strong (weight-rated) as a steel wheel. C-bodies of the era had the same wheel restriction.
You should be able to find dome assemblies. They were used on C-body Chrysler Dodge, as well as Magnum.

Actually A38S is correct for 78. I had a complete set in excellent condition with all the hardware for sale a few years ago. Went for over $400 from what I can remember. Centers with the red inserts and some of the attaching hardware is getting difficult to find. Wish I had kept them. They are beautiful wheels.

Nice. Those became available of the later J-body Cordoba, Mirada and M LeBaron.

No I just have the wheels. The guy at the junkyard said they came in with the caps on them - apparenty someone quickly took them ? I don't know why but I bought the wheels - they are in nice shape and I like them. EVERYONE who has seen them ove here thinks they are UGLY. I'm going to try them on one of the RRs
Original center caps y be hard to find - thinking of throwing like an old cragar cap or something to cover the hub.

Both had aluminum variants; w25 (F), and w23 w25 w28 (B), but were very diff animals.
