    I'm looking to dump my '95 Cobra pretty soon and want to replace the keystones on my '65. I love the '03 Cobra wheels I have on it and was considering narrowing them to 17x7 and 17x8 and putting them on my '65. Here is a very crude photoshop rendering of what it might look like:

    What do you guys think? My brother maintains that I should pick something more rounded (such as cragar SS wheels) and chromed (these are machined aluminum finish) to match the rest of the chrome on the car. I know that ultimately this is my car and I should pick what makes me happy, but I wanted some additional opinions.

    Finally, does anybody want to buy a set of keystones? : )

    Your opinions are appreciated either way. Let me know!

    I was thinking of doing something similar, except in the "black chrome" with a deep red/maroon color 65 coupe. But I was told that it might look a little ricey.

    Look at the SN65 thread. He had them on his car in several pictures.
