      If you like those wheels I think they will look fine on your car.

      I think that they will look great on your car. I'm kind of partial since I have the same wheels for my 72 Nova. What size are you thinking about going with? I've got 18's.

      I like them, but they definitely aren't unique. Lots of wheels have that same similar look. But don't get me wrong, there is a reason they are so popular. They look good!

      Similiar wheel (PSE) on a 2nd gen Fbody. I like the PSE's better because the center is closer to the original Minilite shape and I don't like the lip deal on the hub flange of the V48's

      Phil Schmidt Engineering. Has a little one man shop in SoCal, located around the Torrance airport. Don't bother googling him, you won't find him. He's at (310) 534-4477. Almost all his wheels are 2 piece, disc castings made in OZand hoops made in the States. Phil asesembles and welds the pieces together. He's most noted in the Cobra repop community for his reproductions of Halibrands w/pin drive centerlock wheels and wheels for vintage Lola Sports Racing cars (like T70's, the T16Xand T22X Can Am cars, along with the Ford GT40 that Eric Broadly also designed for Ford.) See

      http://www.shelbyforums.com/forums/1...st-wheels.html post 13for his catalog

      His wheels are a littlke more money than some, but to me well worth it. You may think differently, and that's OK.

      Edit: PS does have a website now- he didn't last time I looked....... http://psvintagewheels.com/home.html

      Phil's wheels may be a little out of your price range Matt...
