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 .

I like the rallys. I do really like slot mags too but prefer them on unrestored, kinda ratty builds especially cars.

Change my vote to the Us Mags Indy wheels for your application.

CG · 09-24-2024, 05:07 PM

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 =)

Rallys are nice, I like, but those slots work here.

Between the two, I agree!

I liked my Rallies but needed to go with 20s when I went with QA1 Suspension

I've recently been looking at something like these 20" modern rally.

**Getter-Done** · 09-24-2024, 10:23 PM

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.

**HO455** · 09-24-2024, 10:41 PM

Just in case it helps here's what I did!

68Gold/white · Yesterday, 10:03 AM

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.

**A1971Blazer** · Yesterday, 10:11 AM

Can't go wrong either way

Loco83 · Yesterday, 12:20 PM

Rallys for me, 15x8 for the front and 15x10 out back.

bnorth · Yesterday, 12:38 PM

Changing my vote to the slot mags as well. Maybe dirty them up a little though haha.

72c20customcamper · Yesterday, 03:35 PM

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 .

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!!!

72c20customcamper · Today, 04:37 PM

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 ?

**Boog** · Today, 05:23 PM

Excellent choice.

**dagnabbitt** · Today, 06:10 PM

I'm biased, but I love your wheel choice anyway. To answer your question, I would always put white letters out.

57taskforce · Today, 06:15 PM

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.
