So DO you all not like the Xtreme Lee?      As those were custom built budnik wheels and were those not   an 18 or 19?

I do not like the wheel choice above as far as color and they are too big in front but..... I like a bigger wheel.

I just checked the were custom 18 and 19.

Not really...but this is from a guy that went with 14" wheels and hubcaps.   ;)

It is a matter of preference and like it or not everyone can do what they want to their own car IMO. For example, my idea of a great car is stock exterior with a modern drivetrain(IE 5.7 fuel injected hemi and a 5 speed overdrive).
1968 Charger 383 auto
1969 Charger R/T 440 4 speed
1970 Charger 500 440 auto
1972 Challenger 318
1976 W200 Club Cab 4x4 400 auto 
1978 Ramcharger 360 auto
2001 Durango SLT 4.7L (daily driver)
2005 Ram 2500 4x4 Big Horn Cummins Diesel 6 speed
2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 5.7 Hemi

Somewhere there are a couple of old Schwinns wondering where their wheels went.

IMO, the big difference between the Xtreme Lee & this '68 is that Xtreme was done with taste & the '68 blew right by taste & landed in poop.
Because of the sheer size of the rims, they need to be a darker color to look more like they belong with the overall picture...& as said earlier, the interior is just waaaay too much. :o
This looks great, in my opinion. :thumbs:




The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Ok,  Well that is my point that they can be done tastefully.....  I personally do NOT like the ones above in the first post.... WAYYY too much.... But I dont mind the big wheel if done correctly.
