My 1974 Hornet Sportabout needs new wheels and lug-nuts. They are the stock 14" wheels (w/ stock hub caps), I would like to keep that size to avoid buying new tires (unless I have to).  Yet I would like a more sporty looking wheel, maybe with chrome rings and center caps.  I have looked at so many designs my head is spinning.
Any wheel replacement ideas would be helpfull.
Thx Wink

Have a decent set of 14" 8 slot w/volcano centers that I'd let go of.  Currently on car, but available at end of March when I get the new wheels on the car.  Am north side of Chicago.  PM if interested.
