    image.jpg I picked up a set of 4 for about the cost of one Cragar SS. They are 15x7. What are your thoughts on how they would look on a Maverick? Don't be shy.

    Since, you said don't be shy.


    I personally always thought they were ugly on the SN95 V6 Mustangs and don't think they would look any better on a Maverick or Comet.

    I have a set in the attic of my garage collecting dust. They were the first thing I changed on my daughter's '96 Mustang V6 convertible.

    I'm with these guys. Take them to the scrapyard.. get your $40 bucks.. and put that towards a set of wheels that fits our cars look.

    You asked. Probably the ugliest wheel ever put on a Mustang.

    Now, I always liked those wheels! Just the odd ball sized tires that killed them.

    The only other wheel as ugly as those would be Keystone Klassics.

    That's what I mean about one's tastes. I personally love the Keystones and always have, yet some forum members don't care for them. Each to his/her own.

    That is why I always cringe when someone in the forum asks, "would this or that look good on my car".
