    Eh, I kind of like the hubcaps on there, provided they spin true. If anything, I'd look into real wire wheels.

      Those wheels don't look right for the car.
      But, if you get rid of those wire hubcaps, can I have them? Mine are shit.

          Those are reversed and 15's made into 14's. Plus the white walls don't do 'em justice. If you go the Cragar SS route, get 15X7 on the front and 15X8 rear, with 4 1/8in backspacing both front and rear. They make the SS larger now, in 17in I think. They look nice on some cars, not sure about wagons. Sometimes I feel like my SS's make the car look their it's from the 'hood if you know what I mean. But most of the time I like them... a lot!

          I've seen 15in Keystones on a Box Sedan before. They just didn't quite cut it, but they didn't look bad.

          Are you looking for retro or modern? I've always been a fan of the Daisy-Spoke (for retro). Polished '03 Cobra wheels are my choice for the modern.





          But honestly man, I'd put turbines on your car. The car is nice and original and original equipment would be good for it.

            Thanks for your thoughts... I would never get rid of the orignals they are mint and true (and only 14"...sorry 86vickylx) I was just thinking of something different but the more i look at it i think I will stay with the orignals and maybe do the custom wheel thing with my 2dr instead.

                    SS's look great on a tudor, esp if they are wide out back...

                        Hell yeah, wide whitewalls and true wire wheels 16" and at least 8" wide would be so badass on his car, and it fits with the old school theme.

                          It needs window tint. Bad. It looks like and aquarium. That said, I'd still kill a man to own it.
