1958 Edsel on BaT - New wheels and tires

[m-mman]

 

See how swapping the original wheels for something that you like, adds significantly to the sales price. 😲

When I see things like modern wheels, I wonder

what else is incorrect.

The radio?

The air cleaner?

The manifolds?

The interior?

The engine?

 

Wheels are simple to correct, but they're a sign

that may turn away some potential buyers.

Not to worry John. In addition to a “dual exit” exhaust system, a reported brake service and an OIL CHANGE they took the nasty wheels off and put on factory rims with white wall tires and hub caps.  Now the price will drop, maybe?  Oh and the fuel gauge is inoperative too.  😊

Those are not even 50-series tires. They are even lower profile.

 

The 20″ Legend wheels are mounted with 255/35 front and 275/40 rear Milestar tires.

Nice-looking car. I'm guessing someone's grandchild inherited it and mounted those ridiculous wheels. The friends have better taste and dissed the wheels, so the car had to go. 

Like the colors.

Not one hair on my head would drive a car with such wheels and if it would i would pull it out .
