Why does everyone have to ruin the look of a great looking Mopar with those stupid looking steel wheels with dog dish hubcaps! Atleast it's an easy fix! Everyone wants their Mopar muscle cars to look like grandpa's 63 Valiant!

$39k for a BH B-Cuda painted shell in an incorrect color (for that year) with a cracked dash and overspray everywhere?

Insane.

Because the ford looking Magnum wheels look cheap and the Rallye wheels look like a Chinese knock off a Chevy wheel. I love colors wheels and dog dish caps. Clean, simple looks. I

They are boring,and over done. Nothing looks and was cheaper than the crappy steel wheels and dog dish hubcaps,nobody ran them back in the day.The magnum 500 wheels are not Ford wheels,they were on Dodge and Plymouth cars in 1966,Ford cars didn't get magnum wheels until 1969.The magnum 500 was a great looking wheel The Mopar rallye wheel looks nothing like a Chevrolet rallye wheel.

Myself I'd go with Keystone Classis but can live with the Cragar S/S. Anything but steel wheels and poverty caps.


Ok

Geez, I have not seen a set of Keystone Classics on a car since...well since I had two on the back of my 1969 Chevelle.....in 1983....always thought they were the a great look. But love the Cragar SS rims too..

My mom's 70 Charger R/T SE had Keystone Klassics on the back too back in the early eighties!

Maybe they can hold out their poverty cap out in front of Walmart and collect enough money to buy some real wheels for their Mopar muscle car! Lol

Nope they are as ugly as homemade soap. Not just these but mostly all spinners unless they are actual knock off wheels . sick

LOL, I've always loathed the Cragar SS wheels.. a rust bomb waiting to happen. I owned a set, they rusted and even the center where the cap mounts broke off.

I do like the spinners with Champ 500 Centerlines, much nicer.

Some homemade soup is better than that garbage Campbell's makes! biggrin
