I like the Halibrand wheels and will probably go with that, but I'm surprised I haven't found too many pics of coupes with various types of wheels. I always like to see other choices before committing to one.
Thanks

There's definitley coupes with different wheels around but just to affirm your initial choice...

Smithtlw,
Any idea on the wheel specifics from the first image on you last post? The blue coupe with the wing. Looks like forgestar F14 super deep concave. Maybe 19x12 rear and 18x10 front. Thinking of running this set up. Would be nice to see what it looks like on a finished car.
Thanks in advance,
Shakey

Guys,
Please, Please, Please, Stop posting these pics because you guys are making me want to build a Type-65 Coupe.
I need to build a new house first so please, please, please stop posting Coupe Pics with alternate schemes and wheels.
Heck, maybe Redbone needs a stablemate with Some Super Cool Wheels and of course an Off-Beat Engine option too.

Awesome, thanks guys. Great stuff. I'm a bit intrigued by the red one with the exhaust out the rear. Wouldn't be my first choice, but I'm getting a bit worried about how loud it's going to be while driving, from what I'm reading. That might be an interesting way to help that, if at some point I feel that is needed.

I Think you nailed it Shakey, take a look at the build thread:

You'd have to check with forcefed1 if you want more detail. It's worth reading through his build thread.

That was on the gen 2 coupes. It's a lot of work but can be done. Not sure if it can be done on the gen 3 coupes. Talk to Mark Dougherty he'd know.
Also not something you want to do as an after thought. Should be part of your initial build plan if you want to do it.
