20s on a elky? Give me a break. I really hate this new tread of cartoon wheels.

i like the rims that are on it. i do agree that they could be smaller though. lookat the bright side at least it is not slammed on 13" daytons. 8O

...cartoon wheels is right...WAY too big!

Also, did you notice - dual carbs on a 305? May be just a tad over-carbureted. 8O

One guy in my dorm said I should put 20s on my elky.....*shakes head* it could be worse they could take it and add a big wing and a coffee can exhaust and the little 13" hot wheels type wheels....

No shame that I see, other than the wheels. Throw some 16's or '17's on it and all is good 8)

15s maybe 16s, but leave the 17+ for the ricers! :)

Im 41 and i think 16s or 17s look good but any thing bigger looks to much like a ricer i realy like the way my 17 tork thrusts look and handle they still have the 70s look that i grew up with. i sure get lots of good coments and thumbs up from a lot of people even the old car clubs around here like the way they look. so i guess im just another 41 year old ricer,

ok, i first questioned why this car was a "shame"..... the only thing i see that would be shameful would be the rims on it, which actually dont look that bad on the car compared to what ive seen on an el camino. Thats a pretty damn clean car if you ask me! Everything looks good from my view. I could understand not liking the 20's (to each their own) but i dont think they look that bad. I would rather see 17's but hey, its not my car.

As for what sizes look good. I think you could throw a set of 17" Torq II's on just about nething and it will look good........ well maybe not anything but you get my drift.
