    Original wheels / tyres have a better stance, I agree it would look better with smaller front tyres

    So most of you don't like the wide whites? Do the wheels look O.K? I know the fronts need to be smaller.

    Wheels are good, I’m not a fan of the little early caps with the adapter rings. Try some 40 to 48 era caps on them.

    Great looking car, great looking artillery wheel's. Personally, the WW's really would not be my choice for this car.
    But I appreciate you posting the pictures !

    This !!!! that setup looks like you bought the same size tire front and rear because the tire store dude said you can't run big and littles because you can't rotate the tires. I have had tire store guys actually tell me that.

    Other than that the front tires are too big and the rears are too little .

    I might tend to agree with alchemy on different dog dish caps. BUT, I like the ww & yes smaller fronts or larger rears might be better, BUT, everyone does that. I'd not change a thing..... if you gave it to me...... ......seriously, if you like how it looks & handles, that's all that really matters. .03 cents or nonsence

    I think it has an early 60's vibe, like... you drove her to high school and you are telling your buddies you 'borrowed' your Dad's cars wheels while he is sleeping from working the night shift.
