I'm not a fan of big wheels on muscle cars but the 19's and 20's really work on this "Be Cool" radiators '72 Chevelle.
Of course, the 14" rotors help and the rest of the car is also spectacular.

That is sweet, looks like they flared out the wheel wells too.

Are those 4 turbos sitting on top of the engine?

looks well done - not over done. Impressive, without the bling. I like that - a lot!

Mmmm......I don't mind the wheels. They need to be chrome though.....black cars need some bling. I know I know chrome is my favorite color.

That is a sweet ride.

Although I prefer really really big wheels with really really tiny stock rotors. And painted calipers
