The simple way would be 670 Firestones and caps.but maybe stock chrome wheels with the double thin whitewalls like the rear tire. It will be dropped 2" in rear and 1" in front. Thoughts and pics welcome
Tires, wide whites, rims, powder coated steelies. After that all you need is a bellflower exhaust and you’re set.
What "era" are we shooting for? I suspect more hotrod than custom? OE chromes with dual pinners would be cool.
6.70-15 2 1/4 inch whites and oe chrome wheels. I just put a set of Goodyears from Kelsey tire on my corvette. 2 balanced at 1 oz and 2 needed zero weights at all.....
Bruiser, mild custom, wild custom, sleeper? What time frame? Visually, it's a 'thick' car, so if going with whitewalls, go big. It also has a good amount of trim, so I'd shy away from poverty caps or spiders and go with chrome reverse or full wheel covers. Here's @Gotgas beautiful mopar. Maybe someone can glue these on.
Gotgas's Chrysler is the most beautiful late '50's Mopar in the country , any thing you can borrow from that car will be awesome !
Custom it is. Here's a bruiser Lots of mild customs already shown. I'd stay away from wire caps. Thin WW
Is that a Belvedere? I love that body, in any of the three trim levels. I say do whatever YOU like best. Does it have the 230 in it or the V8? If I could sell my 46 today, there are a couple for sale that I'd buy. Wife only lets me have one toy
Inchwalls on 14'' '57 up Mopar wheels, 2nd on the '57 Plymouth wheelcovers. Those wheels allow you to run any of dozens of small Mopar caps, too.
