What I am thinking is to have 2 sets of wheels and tires.  Magnums and Rallye's for it just according to my mood at the time.  What you think?

None of the pics look real bad.  The only ones I dont like real well is the ones with black  Did I post the ones with Keystone wheels?

Those gold keystones are great.
I have grown to like the keystones since my 73 cuda came with a set.
That yellow/gold looks really good.

Nothing wrong with that, I'm going to have a 70 and 71 grille and change them out to fit my mood or for car shows.

Sent the pics to my kids but I knew what they would say.  So I will have to have 2 sets of wheels and tires.  They both like the road wheels the best but I like the Rallyes the best but it does look good with the road wheels.   Gordon

Even though I love the look of it the 71 grille is a disaster compared to the lighter and tougher metal grille of 70. If you breath on it the wrong way it will break all to hell. My biggest complaint about the 71 is the grille in all its plastic glory.

Rallyes or Magnums      They both look great.  I like the 5 spokes myself.They go better with the vinyl top.IMO.  Nice renderings by aaron too!!!   I looked for wheels for almost a year. :screwy:  Always a tough choice.   So,....  two sets makes perfect sense.  I will be getting a 2nd someday.   Luckily the types your looking at are more cost effective than most.      I really like the FY1 M46 combo.  Don't really like it for myself...   But it really looks sharp with the blackouts and pinstripe!!!!  WoW!!

Thanks so much!!!!  It looks so good even better than I thought it would!!   :woohoo:  I think the only way to satisfy my kids is to have two sets.  Just can not wait to get started on it.  I hope I can get it lined out to be started on when I get home.   Gordon
