Default Need wheels for 65 Mustang

I am looking for some 18's for a 65 Mustang. Nothing too pricey. One piece will work. Just some cruiser wheels

Any ideas? Does anyone happen to know the backspacing I should get by the way? Stock suspension for now but will lower in the future.

Vintage wheel works offer 18's in some of the wheels and they look really nice, right around $400 for the 18's.

TTII's always look good, the centers of mine are painted a nice gun metal to break up the wheel a bit.

Tons of styles, just depends on the look you're going for. I don't think they look too good but lots of people are running the newer mustang 17's and 18's with spacers. Cheap cheap and all over the local Craigslist.

Hi, it's Chris from Showwheels in Anaheim.
We have a 1 piece wheel machined to order.
For a lowered 65 in 18" we use 7s on the front at 4.5" BS to avoid tires touching the fenders when cornering and 4.75" BS on 8" wide rears to tuck under.
Contact me any time, thank you, Chris 714-524-3100 www.showwheelsusa.com www.kwcforged.com
