Huh? What are we looking at? Looks like a pulley.

 

wow!!

 

Are these the wheels that this thread is about? Looks pretty cool.

 

I vote for the pale green hi-boy with the gray wires.

 

I.... would have to say........ no.

 

the full fendered 32 from Santa Rosa-but maybe those wheels are not right for that car--it looks great as it is.

 

While cool,they don't fit the theme described by Ryan, so I am guessing not too. Speaking of Ryan......where the heck did he go?

 

I know right?

I was just checking out the store and there's a message that Ryan has had a family medical emergency. It may be why he hasn't chimed in lately. Hope everything turns out OK

Thank you for the nice comment.
I think a fendered car is NOT right for the wheels Ryan is talking about according to his original statement . Here is his original line .

So with that being said , I sill think this is the right choice



Although this car ^^^^^ looks great as is .

" Wheels are like shoes , you need a few sets for the different moods of the week "

I hope all is well with Ryan and family

 

So far, most of the cars pictured are cool as they are and that's the problem with them. They really don't need anything to improve them. Getting new wheels, just because they're offered, may not be a move forward. Sometimes, you really CAN'T improve perfection.

So, how about showing some cars that NEED wheels. Or is this all about slapping them on because they're free or from the HAMB?

 

I agree with that except ............ You never know till you try . With out knowing what the wheel is , we are all in the dark . Bolting on a set of wheels to a car that is already perfect may keep it perfect, but a different perfect , or it may go backwards . This is where the choice will be up to Ryan and of course the owner of the car . I can't think of any cars that I liked everything about them except the wheel/tire combo . Usually that is just one thing on the list of many. I have often wondered what an 18" wheel that looks like a 40 Ford wheel would look like stuffed under a rear fender of a 32 with a blackwall tire ? I run 7.50 - 16's so that is a 31" tall tire . I love the look but what if it was a 32" tall tire with a 18" wheel so you are only loosing 1" of side wall rubber . Could be a great look ??? Or not
Anyway , that is the fun of this mystery I think

 

So did I miss the picture or somethin?

Let's get this back to the top with a cool video.

Thats a cool video. I'm guessing late '40s from the '47-48 Plymouth? near the end, could be wrong.

 

Hope all is well Ryan. A late Merry Christmas to you and your family.
