Eagle Alloy 137

Hey guys, thinking of putting a set of 17x8 Eagle Alloy 137 wheels with 255/45ZR17's on a 70 mustang. What do you guys think?

Any opinions, etc. are more than welcome

Not a real big fan of that style. Doesn't really go well with the classic Mustang looks in my opinion. Here is an updated version of the Magnum 500 done in 17" that looks fantastic and I think would look great on a '70!

looks more like a truck wheel, it wouldn't belong on a musclecar.

american racing (and quite a few knock-off companies im sure) make wheels that are somewhat similiar to those.
outlaw II's or gambler's (i think) both lo0k kinda similiar.

it all comes down to what you want though. If you like em, get em. Ive had both positive and negative comments about the '03 cobra wheels on my '66 (more positive though) but whatever ... i love em!!
