Trim Ring Delete

[jas280z]

I saw a '71 429 coupe on Mecum's site (Indy 2016) that had my wheels, minus the trim rings. I decided to pull a couple off this evening, to see what it would look like with my color combo.

I have to say, I really like it.

I would have to respray the wheels, since the trim rings dug into the black paint being them, but that wouldn't be too hard. I am seriously considering running like this for a while. Worst case, I spend 5 minutes and put them back on if I ever feel like it.

Photoshop out the tire letters see how that looks?

I prefer the raised white letter look.

I agree looks great.

I agree, that really looks sweet! Great looking ride.

I'm definitely not a fan of the dog dishes, with or without the trim rings... but this looks pretty good. ::thumb::

That Mopar looks pretty spiffy, too.

Hey - it's ALL good, IMHO

I love the look of dishes minus the rings.

Old school look works for me

Consensus seems to be that it is not sacrilege. I'm going to run with this look for a while and see how I like it.
