Ill be putting my 15" Supremes on my 67 tonight...i'll take a pic and post it for ya as another option.
Hey, isn't that "Ruby," Arlen Vanderhoff's old car?
As for your question, wheels, like women, are all in the eyes of the beholder. Some like Marilyn Monroe, I'd take Raquel Welch any day of the week!! It depends on what you like.
If I could afford them, I would have American Racing Torque Thrust Ds on my Newport!!

So I ended up with the super trendy Ridler 695s. Not at all my first choice but I already had tires sitting in my garage. I do have two of the Daytonas, so if I ever come across another pair, I'll certainly switch to those. These are 18x8 with 0 offset. They fit really well, too. The tires are fat 275/40/18 Dunlops (I was planning on 18x9" wheels), but they fit up in the wheel well with no problem at all.
I'm not big on the muscle car wheels under the long family sedan, and the fact that they are pretty much the same wheels that I had on my Cougar. Maybe if I drop the front a little more to hide the top of the tire they'll look more on purpose.

I have been looking at those rims too. I just was not to sure how they would fit or look on a C body. I think they look good

They look good, your wipers need some tweaking and rid of the awful plastic blades, still I like the wheels. How much room did you end up with between the tire and skirts?

Without measuring, I'd guess about 1/2"

I liked these when I first saw them until I saw pics of cars with them. I very much appreciate the retro-nostalgia of them, but they just don't look right to me.
to me that looks like a pontiac rallye wheel

those wheels look great. I have been struggling to figure out what wheels I want on my four door.

No, It's 5x4.5, or 5x114.3

The offset will destroy your front end.

Uh huh...
Other than being an inch wider... They fit the same as stock.
Destroying bearings with an offset like this, I get it. Not with zero offset.
Damn, that's sexy.....
