My car originally came with Factory 14 X 6 Steel Wheels
I picked up a matching set a while back and recently put them on the car.

Any of the 3 styles look fine to me, just different.
The steelies are kinda more true to the basic-level theme of the RR.
They do look better on darker colored cars than lighter ones, to my eye.

I love the steelies, especially on that car, with that color (beautiful RR, by the way). But.... of them all, I like the fist picture. While the hub caps give the car a finished look, the picture without them just says "I'm here to race."

Steelies & caps look awesome. beer

2 of my cars came with steelies & the Plymouth Division caps. I love the look, simple and sweet.

I like the lettered tires on steel wheels, but only on 70 and up cars.

What i don't like is rallye wheels with black walls. Should be a Mopar felony if there was such a thing.

Sorry Matt.
But I think it looks a lot better with rallyes and raised white letter tires ,,,of any brand .

Never was a fan of steel wheels with beenie caps on anything be them black or body color

I love them, too! Subtlety is the best. Of course, I might be prejudiced. Here’s my car.

not my prefered taste, but it's not my car. Sweet looking road runner, thumbs and it isn't like every other, with Rallys or Magnums. Make it your own.

I agree with Barry as well.
Ihad 3 cars that came originally with steel wheels and caps and thought they looked great !

If yours did not come with them originally then I could understand some complain about them, but how can you not like FC7 color-matched wheels from the factory !

As far as the tires go, I like the polyglas look but not the ride.

Regardless car looks great Matt ! up
