Depends on the look you want. Redlines are pretty darn expensive, but are a great look, especially with dog dishes. I've got the usual Camaro/Corvette rims on my '66 which I think look great, which would explain why they are so commonly seen. Cragars are period correct, but if I was going that route, I'd probably go with Torque Thrusts. Having said all of that...when I do it again, I will likely go with the Beaumont dog dishes. (The only questions will be...with or without trim rings?...and 15" or 17"?)
If you're not 100% sure of the look you want, keep your eyes open for used. (Afterall, any new ones become used once they are mounted.)
And post pictures!!!

I love the look of the redlines, but they are quite pricey

Thanks, I still have the original hubscaps with the spinners, not in perfect shape and was thinking of putting them back on as I want to keep it as original as possible, and I'll go with "15. Decisions, Decisions......i'd put the redlines on but the wife thinks it won't look good on the blue exterior of the car. Thanks again....

Ya your right they are full size and they are for the 14". More issues that i have.

Ok, I've decided on the torque thrusts but has anyone tried to fit the "15 rims on the 65 beaumont? Doesnt seem like alot of room on the backend to fit the 15? Im just wondering if anyone has run into problems trying to fit a 15 inch rim on the 65 beaumont sd? I think i might have to go with the 14 x 6.

15" rims are not a problem with the right back space. It the size of tires you have to watch. On the back I run 15x8 with a 255/60/15 tire. The fronts I have 15x7 with a 235/60/15 tire

Go 15" rims for sure, your tire size selection is much better.

I have pictures of my car with cragars and with ralleyes. I will see if I can get them on here.

How about Mikies Beaumont wrote:

Pictures would be helpful.....any idea what the backspacing on your rims is?

 How about  pictures of your car. Sounds like a SD and I would love to see pictures. I am into them a little bit.

So just to let you all know, a 65 beaumont will not fit a stock 15 x 8 or 15 x 7 in the rear of the torque thrust....of any kind they don't make the backspacing to fit. Custom fit only. Might go the custom route, had some people say i should go to the weld wheel, any thoughts? I dont mind the look but i do like the TTO's better.
