    The wheels/tires you have are ok, but I would suggest you do an entirely different set like the chromies/ww you mentioned and switch off every once in a while. That setup would look killer on your car.

    I agree with Don. Chromies, ww's and maybe Baby Moons. Another option would be to look into Radir mags, a retro mag from the early sixties which also look good with ww's.

    DD, you've got an awesome looking Deuce, you should be VERY proud. I kinda like Don's idea of 2 separate sets of wheels/tires, especially since you already have these. Keep the guys at the cruise nights guessing when you roll in, wondering who the 'new' guy is.

    stovens,

    The paint is a PPG color called Roadhouse Blue. I saw a car last year at the NSRA SE Nationals in Tampa and there just happened to be a PPG booth right across the street. I asked them for a similar color and ended up with roadhouse blue.
