The wheels are 18" Fikse the fronts are 9 inches and the rears are 10 1/2. I can't remember the offsets. All Fikse wheels are custom made so they can make you any offset you need.
Ah strange. They look bigger. I've got 18"x8" front and 20"x10" rear and they don't quite look the same. Must be some combination of yours being a little lower, the proportions of the rear diameter/width and the angle of the camera.

It looks really good. I like the Fikse wheels too. I was tempted to get Profil S wheels but they didn't make 20s. :[ I ended up with black Boze Shifter wheels instead.

That said, the wheels look great on your car.

Probably the finest '72+ 'Cuda I've seen.  Looks awesome!

you know....  I'm starting to like the 72-4 style more and more. A few years back I didnt care for it much at all. It is really growing on me these days. I think they look great in custom paint work like yours and I really like the circular tail lights too.

Nice ride :2thumbs:

I think the '72s can look down right awesome w/a few mods:

-Get rid of the trunklid/rear quarter "Gran Coupe" chrome.

- Get rid of the backup taillights and have all four tails come on w/brake/running lights.

- Get rid of the lower valence insert and put in a '70 style.  Then get headlights w/built-in turn signals.

- Replace the side markers w/70-'71 style or shave them altogether (I prefer the former).

- Front Elasto bumper.

- Painted grille.

- Keep the Rallye hood. I wouldn't put a shaker on a '72+.  My $0.02.

- No Vinyl top.  Cleaner.  Idea is to make the '72+ more modern looking.  That includes painted side mirrors.

- '70 hockey stick stripe.  The '72 style stripe on a '72 is okay if car is black and using a black stripe.
