No I don't think so Christian. Had centerlines on an old dodge duster though. And keystone classics on my first car which was a 1968 dodge charger. I'm really looking forward to seeing them on the car

I love old Mopar.... and i love centerlines lol!


I dont get the whole "wire wheel" thing... Dont people ask you if you have hydraulics or anything?? I normally associate wire wheels with low riders.

Wire wheels pre-date low riders by a few years.

After 3 sets of wire wheels, two of them chrome, I gave up and switched to the Minilite knockoff. The price is the same, but I was very impressed by the new look they gave the car and they are a breeze to keep clean as well as rust free. Be cautious as to what brake pads you use. The Mintex pads, that I was using, lifted the chrome plating off of my Daytons. RAY

thanks for the input Ray but a new look is not what I'm after. when I was a kid I had a toy Jag XKE with, you guessed it ,wire wheels . Ive always loved the look so I guess Ill see how it goes. I thought Id try and go with some ceramic pads if i can find some to keep the dust down.

The wife has had chrome wire wheels on her car for a long time. I can't imagine a different set of wheels on that car. They are very nice looking, but a wicked pain to polish and clean.
