Whether it’s a classic muscle car, custom cruiser, or a brand new ride straight off the dealer’s lot, bolting on a new set of aftermarket wheels is the fastest way to dramatically change the appearance of a car. Five gorgeous 1968 Ford Mustangs recently listed on eBay prove the point.
1968 Ford Mustang Fastback
This green beauty sits pretty on 17-inch Vision Wheel Legend Series wheels. With a freshly built 289 under the hood, mated to a four-speed Toploader, it’s sublime.
1968 Ford Mustang GT
Chrome-plated Cragar S/S was the wheel, back in the day. Wrapped with BFGoodrich Radial T/As, this sweet little ’68 looks like it just rolled out of the 1970s.
1968 Ford Mustang Fastback
Fancy a ’68 Fastback built to drive, not to trailer? This bad boy rolls on a set of uncommon Coy’s C-67 wheels, wrapped with Nitto 555s.
1967 Ford Mustang GT
This silver and black ’67 restomod fastback sports Vintage Wheel Works 16-inch wheels and a slew of goodies, including a fully built 400-horsepower 351 Windsor. Vintage 40 and 45 series wheels are somewhat similar in appearance to classic American Racing 200s wheels.
1967 Ford Mustang GT500E SS
Authentic Shelby Super Snake are rare beasts, indeed. This stunning 92-mile museum piece slithers on 17-inch American Racing Shelby Cobra wheels. How rare is rare? It’s one of a scant 43 GT500E Super Snakes.
Choosing the right size wheel and tire is as important as picking the right type of wheel and tire, from the standpoint of performance, as well as looks. The ’68 Mustang had a standard 14×5-inch wheel, with an optional 14×6. I personally might go for a 15-inch wheel, but wouldn’t go larger than 16 inches. Like they say, your mileage may vary.
