Default Retro rims

Hey everyone first post, but long time viewer.

I have a 2005 Legend Lime and am looking for some new rims. I am planning on getting raised white letter tires, so the rims would have to be 16 inch unless anyone knows of a decent 17 inch RWL. Anyhow I was wantinga list of retro style rims. They do not have to be a style from a classic mustang, just a good old retro rim.

Here is what I got so far:

Cragar
Torque Thrust
Prostar (do these come in 16in)

Thanks

If they were 18" I'd buy in a hearbeat. They have no plans on doing 18s and a set of 20s will run you over $1000.

Thanks everyone for the recomendations, keep them comming.

Nostalgiawheels.com rely looks good, I will have to check it out more when I get home.

Like I said I think I am sticking with 16 inch rims because I really like the tire/rim ratio on my car, but do not care for the factory rims. I wouldnt mind 17 inch, but getting RWL tires would be very difficult. I also know that back in the daypeopleran 14s and 15s, but that isto small for the S197IMO.
