Well, I'm stuck, can't decide on a new rim for my beater.

Every rim I pic, the wife hates, every one she gets... is too OLD school for my taste.

I had a set of 15" TT2s on it, but now I need 17s (no torque thrust or eleanor wheels please........)

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the 66 rolling turd that we need the rims for.

You might check out a few of these sites if you're looking for wheels that are not TT2's or Eleanor wheels:

http://www.newstalgiawheel.com/

http://www.billetwheel.com/

both of these sites can make wheels with the correct backspacing so no adapters needed
 
Do what I did go on ebay and type in ( 114.3x5 17" wheel)( or rim...your choice ) that will give you EVERY 17" wheel with that bolt pattern (that is a 4.5x5 Ford in MM).You will see LOTS of Tuner type wheels as a lot of Japanese cars have the same bolt pattern.
 
Have you seen the Raceline GT polished? The same rim also comes with the spokes painted a metallic dark gray. The spinners are optional on either. But you can't have the painted ones because that's what I put on my kids' '65.
