Default What would you prefer

What would you prefer to see on my car, Magnum 500's or Torq Thrust D's? There either going to be 15's or 16's x7.
Thank You all.

I was looking for vintage magnesium trans-am type wheels, but its nearly impossible. Thanks again for the input.

I prefer the Torque thrusts but your car looks unmolested and the mag500's might look better. Either way it'll compliment your mustang. Look at Soarings restomod and you'll get an idea of what the magnum 500's look like on a 65 coupe.

I have a set of 15x7 TTd's running 225/60/15 tyres.
they fit the rear just fine, but are rubbing on the front b/c the backspacing is only 3.75" and you'll need to get 4 to 4.25 to run any decent sized tyre under the front or stick with a 205ish size.

does anyone know for sure if you can get a custom back spacing on ttd's and if so what extra cost??? They do look great on the car, i just cant drive it withem on

On a gold coupe ? I think wire hubcaps might look better. Seriously though, why notuse the factory styled steel wheel for the year ?

Sweet job!

My vote goes for the TTD's, but I'm partial to TT's...
