Looks like a good base. If you want a decent looking cruiser, cant go past Superlow front, Ultralow rear, get rid of those rims, get some 15" interceptors and some EL Futura hubcaps. Tough.

Because Ford got it right with the EL Futuras ;)

Plus, the car looks much lower on smaller rims.

15" aftermarket rims are a no-no.. Factory FTW!

IMO, the only 15" mags that should be on a car, are the ones that it came with from the factory. Aftermarket rims should be bigger.. ALOT bigger :P

You can put any size rim on, as long as it doesnt change the overall diameter (tyres included)
Most people have 19's on Falcons here.
