There is a set of American Racing Vector (General Lee) wheels with Michelin tires on eBay # 200046643172. These give a FWB a unique, rugged look, and the tires are just right for this vehicle from the ride/handling point of view.
If interested, please contact me directly. Price negotiable.
Attached is a picture of these wheels on a 1992 FWB.
BTY, the lights shown in the pic are high intensity, open-highway driving lights, not fog lights. It was common practice for the well-to-do Cadillac owners in the 30's, 40's and 50's to have such lights on their vehicles.

I have to agree. I like a lot of different, and even odd, styles, but those are just a bit too "Dukes of Hazzard" for a Fleetwood. They'd work well with some Caprices, as I've seen, and maybe even a few Buicks, but just a little too butch for a Fleetwood. All just IMHO, of course, so others might love them:thumbsup:

They might look good on a lowered Black Fleetwood... hmmm...
Thanks for the comments. I got a few chuckles out of them ! !
I have always suffered from being ahead of my time...
BTW, one of these wheel/tire units weighs 6# less than one of the stock steel wheels with the factory wire wheelcovers. And they are immensely easier to mount and dismount than the wheel with locking wire wheelcovers.

Very true, and actually, the more I look at the pic, the more I like them (usually the case). Still not exactly elegant, but they'd probably look nice on the right color Fleetwood...I think. Definately unique, though, and lighter weight is ALWAYS better when it comes to wheels.
