: Another wheel opinion post


04-02-2005, 12:11 PM
I have seen many wheels posted that have been very popular among you guys that I flat out don't like. I guess I get my taste from my late 60s/early 70s hot rod days. I have always liked the old slotted mag look, and I recently saw a pic of these wheels. Be gentle, but tell me what you think of them, and how they would look on the Titan. I don't even know what the mfg. is, or if it is available for the Titan though!

Bixll, I am still a fan of the more solid looking wheels, like the Centerlines we used to see on the 70's muscle cars.

Now I am bummed! I figured out that is an American Racing Wheel, but is only available in 17"!!! Any of you wheel gurus know of a 20" in that style available?

There are a couple sites you can try that have 20" wheels for the Titans.

http://www.tirerack.com
http://www.discounttire.com

I checked them both, and they might have something you like there, more old-school style.

I agree with the posteds.........I think the 60's look is in but it has to be the right taste. For example the magnesium Shelby Racing rims or the equivalent........... Is it you, Bixll, that is trying to add aftermarket rims or you just want an opinion?
I thought that the Azuka 20" or 22" 327's look sharp on the TITAN!!! :happy:

Yeah, if I could find something I like, like the ones in the first post, I would like to get some 20" rims.

If I were in the market for wheels(why replace them if they aren't broke) those would be on my considered list. They have a nice classic look to them. I've never been a fan of the bling bling chrome mad max looking crap.

I found these that are close, but I like the others much better.

I know I'm admitting my age here, but I'm with BiXLL about the old school wheels. To this day (in my opinion, of course) there ain't a better looking wheel than the classic Cragar S/S. If the Titan had 5-lugs instead of 6 lugs, I'd be sporting a set of 17-inchers on my truck.

The only thing is, BiXll is looking for rims in the 20" category. Who makes these or similar in a 20" pattern. I think he may want to go with 9 or 10 inch width? Right BiXll?
Good luck in finding the truths!!!!!!!! :)

Thanks Mick, I am frustrated, and ready to give up on the idea!
