What Wheels and Tires would you get for '66 Dynamic 88 vert?
Guys-
Got my '66 Dynamic 88 about 10 months ago (my first classic) and am thinking about changing out the wheels (15 inch). I've seen some pics of other '65-'66 Dynamics with upgraded wheels and can't believe the difference in the overall impression the car makes. Looking at SSI or Crager SS super stock but open to any other suggestions.
Thanks for your help

I was really digging these on a 66 Delta hardtop. You gotta get the stance right, though.

I spent time and photoshopped the rims onto my car and removed the lower trim. I like those wheels, a lot

I didn't think you could get SS I wheels in the 5x5" bolt pattern?
FWIW, I really like the Cragar SS. I think I will get them for my 71 98 eventually. You just have to make sure the offset and backspacing is correct. I believe these are the ones that fit on the B/C body:

Here's my '65 Jetstar 88 with 18s in the front and 20s in the rear. The wheels are American Racing Torque Thrust II.

Thanks Red Delta...The tires are 295/40/20 in the rear and up front, they are 225/40/18. Goodyear Eagles, I believe. And yes, it's on air bags.

I don't think anything could look better than the wheels it left the factory with.
Unless you are powering it down a drag strip or want great handling - then don't start with a convertible! - nothing beats original for me.
I don't mind being in a minority of one, just my opinion.
