I like the '63's with original KO wheels and two bar spinners.

----I'm not knocking KO's as I have three sets (two NOS), but like to see a 63 as it was produced. Plus, I have only one Corvette they would be correct for. Original KO's are, to me, one of the most beautiful wheels ever designed!.....Bill S

I agree 100% with what you are saying Bill. And to add to it, here IMO is the second most beautiful wheel ever designed:

What about Donks, Cars with big rims. Some even spin?
Another is these custom cars that you just walk by and think, Why?
