Default KO style wheels - spinners or caps?

Which do you prefer?
If the law hadn't changed should '67 cars have kept the spinner (adapted for BO)?

Don't know what you're asking, but if the "winged projection" regulation hadn't taken effect, the regular KO wheel probably would have continued.

Meant for general discussion. After re-reading, somewhat ambiguous, yes. .. Should have directed the question more to '67 owners on thoughts and/or which style preferred.

To me the spinners look the best on Knock-Off wheels, but that is jmo.

Yes, I have seen Knock-Off's with spinners on '67 coupes, and convertibles, not many though for that most '67 owners will go with a TT's with spinners to achieve that type of look.
