Which wheels for my Model A?

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Groucho, Apr 2, 2010.

  1. It needs some Cragar SS with wide whitewalls.:rolleyes:

    Just kidding....I'd like to see how those chrome slots look actually bolted on the car. I have a set of those that I've been thinking about getting some slicks for, and possibly running them on my coupe when it's done.

    I've never like the steel slots. Since you made it an either/or decsision, it's easy. Five spokes all the way.

    Option B, only because the tires on the TT's suck. The fact that you have really good taste and I always seem to like your stuff leads me to believe that you already knew that though.

    #2 seems more fitting with the look of the car.

    #2 for me. those slicks look mean
     
  18. #1 for sure, no comparison.
    And by the way, the term "over done" itself is "over done".
     
  19. That's kinda the point.
    I was looking for something that I like from my past, that wasn't going to be seen on every other Model A out there. I'll bolt them on later and post another pic. The 2 pics posted here may give the 5-spokes a slight advantage, since the Astros are just sitting there, outboard on the 5-spokes
     
  20. Burnt toast, spent, cashed...............:p

    The five spokes are the way to go , out of the two.
    Aluminum slots would be REAL cool though.

    With only two choices, I'd go for option 1. But, honestly, I don't think either choice really fits your A-which is very nice BTW.
