As some of you may've seen in another forum topic, I am considering a more classic set of wheels for my 71 Cuda. I'm thinking 17" Cop Car rallye wheels or possibly 17" standard rallye wheels. I've been looking all over the Internet for reference pictures -- to get an idea of what the 17" cop car rallyes look like on an e-body. Does anyone here happen to have some pics that you can share to help me get the visual?

I don't think anybody makes 17" cop wheels. Foose makes a billet mopar rallye style wheel that you can get in 17" http://www.newstalgiawheel.com/wheel_detail.asp?subcat3=1081103.

I don't know, maybe I'm just old fashioned, but I don't think you can go wrong with the 15" cop wheels or even the plain ol' 15" steelies.

I've never seen any basic steel wheel redone in a 17". Only the Mag 500's or Rallye type. Looked for wheels for almost a year.Then Travis72 on here helped me out. 17's are they way to good rubber.And cheap too!  I can get take-off's for almost nothin'!

If you want a steel 17, the new 300 and Charger (with hubcaps) wear a steel wheel that is pretty plain.  You may have to ship them off to have the backspacing "fixed" for your application, though.
