Default Which wheels to go with ??

I have a black on black 67 RS/SS. I was going to put corvette rally wheels on it. BUT....I'm thinking about 18" Boss 338 wheels. Black with a chrome lip. I know they are two entirely different looks....but I can't decide. Help !!!! Before I buy.

The front wheels now are a little too skinny for my preference but they look pretty darn good. Go with the Corvette rally rims or like DK said, Torque Thrusts.

18" are going to make for a rough ride and bent rims on every pothole. No matter which wheel you go with I'd really consider some 17's. I too have a 67 SS/RS and run 17 x 8 TTII in the rear and 17 x 7 in the fronts. Some multi-leafs in the back and Eibach 1" drops in the front outta do the trick.

I personally love the rally wheels. With all that black, you need more chrome.

Will 15x8 rally wheels fit o.k. ? Someone is selling all 4 and I was wondering if the 8's would fit on the front without rubbing.
