side mirrors

Which of the two mirror styles offer better visibility and function - the round head mirrors with the single arm or the sport mirrors?
Do the single arm mirrors vibrate?
Building a 68 SWB.
Thanks

Re: side mirrors

Of the two options, I'd guess the sport mirrors offer better visibility, since they are bigger. I have the sport mirrors on my truck and have no issues seeing all the traffic around me.

Re: side mirrors

I have RV JR's on one 67, lots of visibility. Round single arm on the other 67. I don't notice any vibration.

Re: side mirrors

The passenger side Sport Mirror is worthless for anything except checking out someone walking on the sidewalk.
