Depends on the style you're after! In my eyes, my car - a 68 New Yorker looks best lowered on some 14" Cragar wheels or Rockets! A classy cruiser!
 
There are a lot of options available. There are some double and triple white wall tires, red, blue, gold line tires and all kinds of wheels available.
The bigger question can easily turn into.... how much money do I want to spend? Be sure to let us know what you decide. Good luck!
 
I allready have a set keystone laying around here and some redlines on roadwheels but i wanne swap these on the keystones and put them under the monaco or polara 500........

But on the photo you see also white letters on the redline tires , not seen before!!
Like it a lot!!!
 
I wish they did the inside pages rather than just the covers.

I know that's a lot, but the covers don't tell much.
 
Anyone here with keystone,s under his fuselage..???
 
I want to see Fuselage cars on Keystones too. Also sitting on Astro Supremes, Rockets, Cragars, Appliance knock off Cragars etc. All 1960s style 5 spoke pictures please.
 
I had Keystone Klassics on my A12 Roadrunner for years. Some guys gave me crap because they weren't black wheels with chrome lug nuts... Which I really don't like. The Keystones on this car were still decent, back before they started getting cheap with the prep for chroming. They (and Cragar) really had a period were the quality of the chrome finish was marginal. It was said that some came "straight outa the box" with rusty chrome.

They're also kind of a heavy wheel... Two piece construction with a cast center welded to a steel hoop. Never quite figured out how they did that with two different metals. Their different "unilug" variations could be nightmares too, especially when they made a change in configuration and left the guy with the "old style" hanging. Still... If my 300 didn't have some nice road wheels (which I really like), the Keystone would have been in contention for wheel of choice.... Of course, I also always wanted something to put a '57 Plymouth hubcap on, but that's another story...

The Keystones were period correct (or is it "korrect"?) on my A12... My old buddy Ted, brought his new 69 GTX home and the first that happened was the steelies came off and a new set of Keystones went on. He still has the car, although sometimes it wears a set of Magnums these days.

BTW, just got a pic from him after it came back from its first repaint. The car's B3 was just a little worn...

I just got converted from my dislike for B3.

Didn’ know it just needed black to accent.

In all the years that I've known him and been around that car, I've seen so many people stop with their jaws dropped around that car. The vinyl top, blacked out hood and rockers just do it. It is the best looking 69 b body I've ever seen. Even people that don't like vinyl tops like this one. Open the hood for the hemi and jaws drop even more and the car runs hard and fast like a hemi should.
 
AND black interior. Most Dodge B3 C bodies got a blue interior, wheres the throw up icon.

Definitely. I’ve never even seen that many of them from muscle car era, though my deck lid on my 70 is that color. Must not have been very popular or later were just re-painted resale red haha.

Ive seen many diplomats that color though.
 
Was waiting for the offset oval washers......
