IMHO letters inside...makes it look more mean.

those torq thrusts??

I'm swaying that direction as well Mario, white letters in. Buddy has a tire changer and balancer so easy enough to flip back and forth.

The wheels are US Mags Wheel U106 Standard. There are not officially my wheels yet, they're a friends. He wants to swap me for a set of US Mags Wheel U104 Standards I picked up around Christmas. Same as these, but chrome instead of black.

The more I look at them on the car, the more the black wheels work with the rest of the paint scheme. I wanna keep ol' Skeletor as mean looking as possible.

Looks mean !
I aways do white in or black letters. I remember when those rasied white letters meant everything though to...LOL

 

[MarPar]

i would say keep these rims, Will. i like the center blacked out and the silver around the rim. it does make it look mean. the chrome may be a bit too flashy for her. got any way of putting your rims on it just for a comparo?

Yeah, same here, remember those days....Coronet has them facing out, but going for a different attitude with the Plymouth. The whole "it's been 43 years, i'm back and i'm pissed" look.

Think so? I'm thinking the same as well. I can get my rims back from him and compare. Funny thing is that he took my rims over to mount on his Fairlane and post on some Galaxy/Fairlane board to ask the same question. LOL
His car is white..When I seen them on his car, the black was a bit too contrasting. I'm thinking the chrome may work out better for him.

Ya man, i reckon so. you want to keep her as blacked out as possible and chrome rims are going to stick out like a sore thumb for this application (.02).

LOL that's hilarious. ya it seems like the planets aligned with this little deal. his are too dark, yours are to bright, the old switcheroo and everybody is happy!!

 

[Basket case]

yeah to the wheels
and yeah to the white letters inside

Looking good Will, I'm also thinking black wheels w/ blackside wall.....

 

[roadrunnerman]

hey will,i'm a white letter out kinda guy,but that's just me.Besides, it gave the dogs something to read while they were chasing me down the road. But the pics of yours with no WL's looks good.Too bad you couldn't go all black on the rims,then it would make skeletor like a B-body version of KITT.

 

[Joe Mopar]

Great looking wheels, and I also vote for black wall out. Awesome looking car !

 

[hunt2elk]

I'd make the swap with your buddy. I usually would vote for white letters out, but on your car they look great in, with those wheels, and your black paint.

 

[TBONE]

Looks Bad-*** with white letters in!!!

 

[Ron 73]

Looks great Will! I can see the Coronet posing behind you in the reflection! With the triple black and the wheels (love the touch of chrome to make them stand out) I have to agree with the white lettering delete this time.. Very sinister look to that Night Lurker.

 

[Propwash]

Wow...Thanks for all the imput fella's. Looks like we're all pretty much on the same page about the wheels/tires..LOL

If my car starts talking to me like Kitt Roger, pretty much would confirm I've gone over the deep end. BTW, Keep your eyes peeled for those spacers, they're in the mail.

 

['69Net]

are You there Yet Will?????? lol.....

Mine is.....go have alook at the Big Red Bitch thread.....

well, if you start looking like the Hoff, then we know you went over the deep end!!! nevermind the car talking to you!!!

 

[Propwash]

LMAO...Bawaahahahhahahahahah! My god man.....I hope not.

 

[roadrunnerman]

thanks will,I'll have the wife hide in the mailbox and let me know when they arrive.You get the suspension under the coronet yet,will?

 

[Donny]

Just don't sing like the Hoff!

 

[Propwash]

thanks will,I'll have the wife hide in the mailbox and let me know when they arrive.You get the suspension under the coronet yet,will?

You have a pretty dedicated wife Roger. I can't even get the wife to go to the mailbox...lol Suspension/steering is back under the Coronet. Brakes rebuilt. Found another little issue though. I have a freeze plug on the backside of the passenger side head leaking so, looks like that's next up to bat. Seems like one step forward, two steps back on this little project.

Just don't sing like the Hoff!

No Doubt! For your listening enjoyment Donny....
