Great thread... I was having the same debate in my head. I like the non dish wheels on modern cars but I do think the dish completes the look on a muscle car.

I think this looks pretty good

but I can understand that the dish look, looks good too. :yes: I do like a nice dish, however I think a huge dish on the rear with only a little dish on the front looks weird
I agree - and that car looks great. Just a slight difference between the front and rear - I likes.

I've been into FOX bodied mustangs for years and the typical goal there was 17x9s all the way around with 275-40-17s all the way around. The wheels were identical, front and rear. I actually like the wheels in these pics of my old 93..and I have considered using them on my 67. Too many choices..

A dish makes the tire look wider. Kind of alerts you as to what is underneath. We actually went to great pains, narrowing the frame, to get dish on the 12 wide front tires on Prodigy, otherwise as low as it is you would never notice all that tire.

Ya that looks alright but it would look better with more dish. That's what I'm saying....

dished is much better looking.
