Finally got rid of the factory split rims! Found these 15x7s on a Fifth Avenue in the junkyard - $6 each seemed like a deal to me...

Cool. Are you gonna leave it as is or put caps on?

I'm looking for some redline center caps, but they're proving to be a bit elusive and expensive!

i think it looks great with the all black vintage steelies

much better than the trend towards huge modern aluminum rims !

Were the split rims 16"? Factory 15" weren't split. 16" 5 lug are kinda scarce.

They were 15x5s, apparently an option because they're listed on the door tag.

Got some beat up caps for $20. They look better in pics than in real life...
