i love the torque thrusts as the most classic period correct aftermarket wheel, although the rallys get my vote as best oem wheels

I voted Rallyes because that's what I put on my Barracuda. It came with 14" x 5.5"  and I swapped to 15x7s & 15x8s on the back.  I could just have easily said aftermarket though as I have Torque Thrust D's on the Roadrunner and I didn't think I wanted the same wheels on both cars.  Might have gone that way otherwise.

I voted steelies and dog-dish hubcaps but I equally appreciate the look of pro-touring aftermarket wheels too. At some point I want to have a set of both for my car so I can change up the look from time-to-time.

I like the Boyd's that are currently on my wife's Cuda. I've had rallyes on so many of my cars that I'm kind of tired of them. The only one of my cars that has rallyes right now is my Superbird.
