- How to select the right look for my classic car’s wheel combo is a tough call. I got a great deal on the Cragars but the American Racing wheels are just as iconic. Which one gives the Galaxie that street look?
Hit me up in the comments!

In my opinion, you need to run 15" rims on that car with tall tires!! That whole 17" rim thing just ain't cutting it, especially on that classic car.
nah, just run some more side wall aspect height. Keep 17's on back, and use 15 on front. or if fat tire 15x12 on back with 17x7 or 8 in front. Or some big and wide 18's on the back and little 15's on front. Its Roddin'
Both are beautuful but The American Racing Torq Thrust 16x8 is absolutely the perfect wheel and also give place for a higher tire "50 series gives a much greater look from the side. Perfect !!!
Thank you for the input. You're right about the wide track it gives the car. Looks mean too!
Only 2 choices, Crager SS or Keysstone Klassics ! Alright maybe aluminum slots on a drag car…
Change your speedometer gear and use an inch taller tire on the bigger wheels. P275/60R17
I like the Torq Thrusts on the car. The more side wall looks better to me. I love the Cragar though.
It’s true, the wheels both offer a classic look. I will have a new set of wheels coming for the Galaxie soon!
I like the Cragar...it’s a chrome thing. These cars looked killer back in the day with the Cragars. The trend now is the larger wheels and low profile tires so the Cragars would keep with that...more current. The whole thing depends on what look you want...Chrome is good lol.
I never thought finding the right wheel combo was so hard. Even harder when 15’s are almost extinct.
I'm liking the torque thrust look on your car. I think more sidewall on 60's cars looks better.
You’re right, it’s a shame it’s so hard to find any beefy 16” tires.
Cragers 😁👍
Those are fine the craigers. There is enough meat on the tires they dont look rubber band thin
Man you making it hard but I vote torque thrust.
keep 'em coming
I’m trying to shake things up and keep it interesting.
I like Cragars, but not into the Conestoga wagon wheel look either. Torque Thrusts get my vote, only because older cars need some sidewall and a deeper wheel face. I'm that guy that runs 15" on everything..... so take that as it may be. Hahahaha
I feel ya, great points to consider Oly. I’m shocked at the massive space under the wheel wells.
@@fullthrottlekindaguy oh yeah you can almost crawl up in there with the car resting on the ground! Haha! Not sure if they were thinking of allowing tractor tires in there or what...!?
I like them both! I know, I know, no help lol
It helps to know I have an option that looks right. Kinda like a tie, 1/2 a vote for each.😀
I like the tourqe thrust myself.
So far they’re in the lead.
Torque thrust!!!
Tork trust looks more beefier and it go’s witha classic car. Creger looks very thin looking but thair both nice
A year later, how do you feel. Agree, 16" tire options are going away.
Well, I was making moves behind the scenes. I am going to stay with the Torqs, but in 15’s. More to follow.
Cragar's or Torque Thrust 's, it don't matter. Whatever you like. But black wheels belong on Amish buggys
Torque Thrusts all the way!
Tough choices in life👍
Always. Really between the 2 a person can’t go wrong.
@@fullthrottlekindaguy my first rims were cragar mags.
Dang, I think the first set of mags I got were the Ansen Jelly beans. Lord, that was 40 years ago.
GIven these 2..... I'd have to say Torque Thrust for the win.
But I'm a steel wheel, baby moon & beauty ring kinda guy.....lol
I’m an old school steel wheel guy myself. One day I’ll go for the bottle cap hub cap look for the retro treatment.
57 chevy with baby moons priceless.
What did you end up with? On my Mustang I went with the Torque Thrust 16 so I could get a sticky enough tire for autocrossing. Otherwise I would have gotten a 15.
I stayed with the Torq Thrusts. I’m hoping to find old school Thrusts in 15x6 for the fronts and maybe do a steel wheel 15x8’s for the rear.

@@fullthrottlekindaguy Interesting. I would have voted for 15x7 Cragers all around.
It is amazing how a set of torque thrust D wheels can make a shitty car look cool.Not talking about your car sir just a basic car in general.
