For your very stock-looking car, I think the stock rally wheels look best. But either set would look good on your car. If you don't already have the alum. wheel set, leave it as-is and use the $$$ for more gas.
The great thing about having three cars is that I don't have to make that choice. I have a second set of the hi polished factory wheels on tires for when I want variety on the black or red car.
Love the Western Turbines/ Hurricanes on the black car Mark! Mine are the 30 vane version, especially after i painted them about 37 years ago. But when it comes to wheels, or about anything else, go with what you like on your car! Anyone else can go buy there own and put whatever wheels they want on it.
A previous owner painted the rallys black and added "CHEVROLET MOTOR DIVISION DISC BRAKES" center caps. I know: it's "wrong", but I kinda like the look.

I always liked the look of the "short" caps.....and they weren't as heavy, I believe.
Beautiful cars, both of you!!!
Love the gold stripe on your '74 walleyfisher and I love the rallies on it.
I think the black rallies on your '69 mh_merc, look great. Those centers look smooth.
My '73 has rallies and I had them silver for years, then black for many years. I repainted the Charcoal last summer.
Appliance made some really good quality wheels. I had a set of their "slot mags" that were the rage, back then. They burst on the scene in the early 70s, than vanished about 8-10 years later. I wonder what their story was....

Funny thing, I usually remember what I did with the custom wheels I had, over the years, as I had a number of sets, and I obviously sold the Appliance wheels, but I'll be damned if I can remember to whom I sold them....
I had a set of Cragar polished slots back in the day.
I can't remember what I did with mine either. But for some reason I still have the center caps!...
