Thanks and yes that's the car they are going on. I can't wait to see how it looks. Need to decide on tires though. Any recommendations? 215/50 and 245/45 since they are 7" and 8" wheels is the plan.

I love those wheels. Had them on a Rambler and they made the car. The rough casting just looks killer.

New owner decided chrome coys were a better choice.

Thanks for the compliments, glad you like 'em. I agree that roughness of the centers really gives it character.

These pictures attempt to give some insight on how the car will look. I couldn't resist trying to get a visual...

Finally got the wheels and tires on the car. I'm liking the look for sure. The give the car a stout purposeful look and w/ the cast centers it is really unique.

Fantastic wheels - rough cast looks awesome. Nothing better, and I wish more companies offered 'cast' as a finish option.

Thanks, glad you like them. Been almost 3 yrs, great time for sure.

At this time, these PSE Kidney Beans are on my '61 Ford Econoline. Reason being, the '56 Thunderbird went away to the paint shop. I think they look pretty sweet on the truck too.

So now I'm considering another set of PS Engineering wheels or maybe Vintage Wheel Works.. for the Thunderbird ..or the Econoline... I give Vintage a call and talk to Eli. As we talked specs on their Vintage 45's and my backspace specs, he mentioned PS Kidney Beans. So I find out Vintage Wheel Works has brought PS Engineering wheels into their product offering! They are going to offer the Kidney bean and the other wheels as well.

Passing along for information, although I haven't dealt w/ Vintage, from what I read here and my experience today is all positive!
