Yes Bill, I did have the rear jacked a little to keep tires off of fenders. I ran the trim rings with rally caps, as you have, for awhile and then I had the brainstorm to marry the wide rings with the wire centers. I did like the look and still have the caps hanging on the wall.

I knew it looked familiar! We played Garrard County every year in pretty much every sport.

I had the 200S wheels on my AAR Cuda . One wheel I haven't seen mentioned is the Keystone. A friend had them on his 67 Camaro.

A while back... I had asked if anyone had ever seen pictures of motor wheel spyders on a C2...
There wasn't much love for them (at least here) but I think they are kind of cool.

I spent many a hot afternoon of football practice and Friday night lights on that field for 4 years. I played in late 60s so depending on when you played, our paths may have crossed.

This picture was sent to me by the original purchaser of my SWC. Not long after buying it, he painted the back sections of the original wheel covers black to give it a "mag" look...
