...65 and then only another 4 years off and interesting age like 69 that year will turn my f/ head

One way of putting it ...

Interesting in that photo how the darker wheel looks larger than the white wheel.

Does the budget include tyres or using existing?

and then replied......my heads been turned for 40 odd years...

no I will use the old tyres so if anyone has some good idea for wheels put them up- I am open for a look. if I can get out of a re - paint the wheel may just be an option

either that or I may get a red side stripe and paint the rims red and maybe the pinch weld seam underneath red too

White rims are a bit late 80s/early 90s, but the white rim looks good in that latest pic, especially without the stripes.

At Fan Fest there was a white NC with white wheels, white highlights, white underwear. It reminded me of Miami Vice-white suits and shoes.

well I've run these same rims for 7 odd years so really have no ideas on rims. in reality they are just a waste of money...but I will come into some free money shorty so I will say it again
post photos of rims only you think suitably in 15" to the value of say $2000 max -nothing more which is suitable for this car and I will give it some thought

There are lots of wheels to choose from.
RPF1 and 6UL are popular options.

Reps are cheap but you'd need to do your own research re quality. As a street car they may be ok.
There are many people against reps.

BB, there are some photos here of white NBs that may spark an idea or two regarding wheel options...

In light of your newly acquired spray panting skills.... why not go custom???? Hella siiiiik maaaate (rims or no rims, I still expect to see you at the next Sydney nasho run with the MX5 formally known as big red)

Hi Billy.
The post and attachment by liteisrite is the way to go-polished rim black centre.

[speed]

That's what I have but i still think bronze or gunmetal grey looks better on white.
