Wheel decision need some input
Looking at the Vision rally 15x7 front with 15x8 rears with center caps ,trim rings and new lug nuts price comes in at $700 before tax with Free shipping .
Also like the Us Mags Indy same sizes the come in at $897 with center caps no lug nuts Both are 6 lug for my 68 both have the old school look that I’m looking for Been going back and forth for a few days .

Re: Wheel decision need some input
I like the rallys. I do really like slot mags too but prefer them on unrestored, kinda ratty builds especially cars.

Re: Wheel decision need some input
I think the US Indy Mags are more old school look than rallys. Might even consider finding an old set that needs polishing to give it even more of a vintage look, home polish them.
But I like the rallys too =)

Re: Wheel decision need some input
Okay Mark
With only 2 Choices My vote is for the Rally wheels. The slotted wheels have Cheap looked (Not the Era Center caps). Just my opinion.

Re: Wheel decision need some input
I prefer the car rallys on cars, truck rallys on trucks.
Those U.S. mags are the best looking aluminum slot wheels, period. I had a set on another car, way back. They look better, have the best center caps, and will clean up better than any other aluminum slot wheel. |

Re: Wheel decision need some input
Changing my vote to the slot mags as well. Maybe dirty them up a little though haha.

Re: Wheel decision need some input
I’m leaning towards the US mag . I have a set of square 5x5 lug 15x7 and 15x8 truck rallies all restored with trim rings and center caps if I decide later on I can do the 5 lug conversion .

Re: Wheel decision need some input
When I get my 68 Golden back on the road, it will be 5 lug. I have a bunch of 8" rallys. 15X8 factory wagon wheels. I like them both...may paint a set of Rallys Gold to match the 68 paint. Theres a wheel thread, here somewhere........Some one painted a set or rallys gold with center caps and trim rings, they looked real sharp!!!

Re: Wheel decision need some input
I ordered the rims yesterday the tires a few days ago since I was decided that either way I was doing 15 inch rims . They both came today on the FedEx truck . Rears are 245/65r15 fronts 215/70r15 more meat out back but nearly identical height Summit is pretty much next day delivery here with their free shipping .
Now white letters or black wall ?

Re: Wheel decision need some input
I'm biased, but I love your wheel choice anyway. To answer your question, I would always put white letters out.

Re: Wheel decision need some input
I vote for the mags, I’ve thought about running them on my K20 off and on for a long time. Your 68 is going to look great with them.
