Rednose, that is sweet! That's exactly what I want to do with mine, except I am going to paint the wheels white.

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.

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!

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!

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.
