wheel design
I got new tires for my 73 convertible, went with Cooper and duplicated what was on it (275/60R/15). I like how this size fill the wheel well and maybe an inch of space between the fender bottom and the top of the tire. But I would like a bigger and more modern looking wheels. Can someone share their wheel of choice?

17s can look good if the sidewall dont get too skinny. Never was a fan of 18, 20+ plus they ride like a truck. Some like em..
Anything I sorta liked ran 3k+ for 4 so 15s it is!

There are approximately eleventy million pictures and setups in the stickied wheel and tire thread to check out.
I did 245/45/17 and they rub a little in the front on hard turns.
