Old cars should not have low-profile tyres with giant alloy Tonka wheels. Cartoon diameters are starting to look daft on modern plastic boxes, but the proportion of the wheel and tyre has a particular aesthetic relationship with classic bodies (including many pre-'90s cars) that is lost without high-profile rubber. Steel wheels, even if chromed, should be used on cars from the era before alloys became ubiquitous. Perhaps, one day, we can reverse the trend, and designers of new cars will begin to shrink diameters to serve the visual art, and only use larger wheels to serve the functions of braking, turning circle and limiting deflection.
I like Willy's

Are these Willys road legal in Louisiana?
Check out episode 6 where we cover all that needs to be done to title and register a WW2 War Jeep. I think you’ll find it helpful 😀
