Just wanted to let everyone know what a great group this is. I had mentioned that I wanted to get original size wheels and original wheel covers or hubcaps for my '67.
I ended up with 5 14x5's, a set of Mag Style Wheel Covers, and a set of dog dishes too! All through this forum! The Mags are in pretty good shape but I'm going to try to restore them to new(er) condition. Anyone have any suggestions for restoring the colored areas of the wheel covers?
In the mean time, here's a picture of my Z21 with it's new shoes. I went with P195/75R14's on 14x5 rims.

What's amazing is how much better the car drives now, the old California Chrome mags that were on it were 14x6 with very old G70x14's. The tires were hard as a rock and made to car drive like a gravel truck, also the narrower tires are MUCH easier to turn without power steering.
Thanks
