I am wanting some suggestions on wheels for my 1965 Skylark. I think I'm wanting a 18 20 combo. The car is mini tubed and will have air ride. I had Jason Rushforth do a few renderings of his car which is just like mine. I'm torn between going with a full polished wheel or a smoked titanium. The car will be either red or possible silver. This is my first build so I don't want to make a bad choice on wheels and regret it. I'm open to any suggestions on these wheels or any other brand <a href="http://s156.beta.photobucket.com/user/bwedan/media/LivewireBrushedWithoutHardware.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t1/bwedan/LivewireBrushedWithoutHardware.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo LivewireBrushedWithoutHardware.jpg"/></a> <a href="http://s156.beta.photobucket.com/user/bwedan/media/LivewireBrushedWithHardware.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t1/bwedan/LivewireBrushedWithHardware.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo LivewireBrushedWithHardware.jpg"/></a> <a href="http://s156.beta.photobucket.com/user/bwedan/media/LivewireSmokedTitaniumWithHardware.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t1/bwedan/LivewireSmokedTitaniumWithHardware.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo LivewireSmokedTitaniumWithHardware.jpg"/></a> <a href="http://s156.beta.photobucket.com/user/bwedan/media/Rated-XBrushedWithoutHardware.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t1/bwedan/Rated-XBrushedWithoutHardware.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo Rated-XBrushedWithoutHardware.jpg"/></a> <a href="http://s156.beta.photobucket.com/user/bwedan/media/Rated-XSmokedTitaniumWithHardware.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t1/bwedan/Rated-XSmokedTitaniumWithHardware.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo Rated-XSmokedTitaniumWithHardware.jpg"/></a> <a href="http://s156.beta.photobucket.com/user/bwedan/media/Rated-XBrushedWithHardware.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t1/bwedan/Rated-XBrushedWithHardware.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo Rated-XBrushedWithHardware.jpg"/></a>

I like the last picture.

I do not like the 20's in rear. 18's & 19's would look much better in my opinion.

Agreed on the sizes.

I think the 3rd one down is a home run.

Yes 18 & 19 will suite the car as the body isn't huge so I agree the 20's would be over whelming and make it look like a Hot Wheels. I am going to go with the Live Wires when I'm ready to order some for my car so I'm kind of partial to them

Number three really looks good to me.

the grey 5 spokes, agreed 18/19 is best , 20 looks a bit too big for my taste on the back.

A good rake and 18/18 combo does look good as well.
