I hate to say it but I'm having trouble visualizing any of those wheels on your 60 Ventura. The style of the first one is really dated, it looks like it belongs on a Boyd car from the 90's. The second one is too blingy and contemporary, sort of like putting a bunch of modernist art in a Federal style house, it doesn't fit. And the 3rd one is almost too clean or too plain for an early 60's car, especially a Pontiac. Sorry to be harsh but I'm sure there's a perfect fit for your car out there. Good luck in the search!

No offense taken at all. Here is the problem.... 10,000 wheels to choose from and not sure where to turn. On the one hand... the classic look on this type of ride is a wide 5 spoke wheel... which I like... on the other looking for a modern look that shows off the big brake bling....

The first two wheels has that wide spoke look with the directional 'flare' which appeals. I don't think a "mesh' style wheels will look right... perhaps a 10 spoke?


you have any suggestions?
