Default Need Advice on 22" wheels for 62 lincoln convertibile

Looking for some wheels suggestions for 62 lincoln continental. I have looked at a ton and the lincoln being so long/big it will take something special to make it look cool. Any suggestions?

Post up a picture of the car...I think that would help encourage others to chime in. That type of body style, you need to decide what sort of statement you want to make with the wheels, as you could easily aim for one thing and hit something entirely different. Given the somewhat skirted rear fender, a 20/22 stagger could look quite good I think so long as you maintained a larger sidewall on the rear. I'm not sold on a 22" front, but do it an prove me wrong.

Check out that movie "Hit and Run" there is a cool early 60s Lincoln in there done in a pro touring style with nice wheels. Not sure what the sizes are.
