16" Ford or Kelsey Hayes wires and modern radials.Better ride,better braking,better handling.
Could never understand the 'looks' argument,the car is safer to drive and a better ride with modern tire sidewall flex and more tread contact..

I believe this is also a reason why the car endured,removing the 21's or 19's on a worn used car and fitting 16's changed how it rode and felt,they were less apt to sell or scrap it.
