WHEELS AND TIRES old School.

This is the OLD School look I'm going with the wheels will be a little Darker Grey. I can't wait to see them on the Car I'd like some thoughts and Opinons? The wheels will be 18inch, this makes the tire wall taller.

I like the look also. I have thought of getting some 18inch rims for the larger tire side wall and for winter driving. I have the 20's on now.

Great look, but make sure they will work...lots of info on tires/wheels in that forum...
gotta be the right off=set, width, etc..just because the bolt pattern is the same, there's more to it...good luck..

I've been wondering if 18" Torque Thrusts would clear the callipers. I'm really liking the T/A's with the raised white lettering. Do it, and post pics please.

I was going to go with this exact look but changed my mind at the last minute to another wheel. But it will look super tight I am sure !!! I love the 18" look !

I like that look but it seems like a lot of the manufacturers just don't get it. How many tire manufacturers are making raised letter tires in 19" or more. Cragar wheels doesnt even realize that there is a whole community waiting for old school cragars in 19" rims.
