Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
Rednose, that is sweet! That's exactly what I want to do with mine, except I am going to paint the wheels white.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
Hey Fella's, They're aftermarket smoothie steel wheels, these have the bumps around the center edge to hold the caps. Mine came from Early Wheel Co. but I believe Wheel Vintiques and maybe The Wheelsmith also carry them. They're all on the web if you do a search. Hope this helps.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
The way it came, well sort of! 16" x 9 1/5" ( Stock 16" wheels I widened ) with 255/55R16 all around. 4 1/2" backset if I remember correctly.
P.S. Stock look & original cap, never goes out of style!

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
15x7 painted smoothies w/ early 60s Buick caps & 205/70/15 thin white walls. I like 'em, but I want to get some 15x6 Supremes. All 60s old school for me!

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
Check this out! I was running a vintage set of 15x7 Sprint slotted mags that I found at an old tire shop & cleaned & polished them up. Only used them for about six months & went back to painted smoothies and ww's.
