I thought lots of '65 '66 guys who have 17" get 8"

 

mustang monthly did an excellent article on wheel fitment, and clearing the upper balljoint and control arm on 65-66. 16 and under, you need to limit to 7", but I believe the 18" rim could clear the control arm, giving you extra room. look it up in the tech search on the web page.

 

15 x 7

 

As much as some of you guys like the big wheels, I don't I'd stick at least with the original size. The only ones that look good with biggerwheels (to me) are 2000-2004 years.

 

do you think it'll look bad if i put 16x7 in the front an 17x8 in the rear of my 65 coupe ??

 

has anyone ever done this?

 

Yes I do, but you kids don't listen to me anyway. How about some 22" wheels? Now, that would be real classy.

 

haha soaring you crack me up.

when i was driving around the other day i saw two different classic cars ('60s era chevys) with 22"s or something close to that...it made me want to puke. ive decided that when im older and assuming i become a multi-millionare , im just going to bring a set of nice looking classic wheels with me wherever i go and wait for them to park their car then BAM!!! switch their wheels out and sell the others as scrap metal hehe
