    I don't think that 23 INCH wide rim is going to fit in wheel well. :huh: they are nice looking wheels. had some like that on my 70 Maverick when i had it. But i hated cleaning around those screws on the inside edge.

    Beautiful Comet!

    About wheels, Mangels is manufactured here in Brazil, and stopped production of these steel wheels in 2005.
    Is these rims new?

    About tires, i prefer 215-60 R15...
