yes hub centric. That low mile car should be kept original, so powderpaint the original date stamped wheels and use them

The steel wheels got a little rusty in Ohio, where the car spent its first 34 years. The local wheel repair guy here in Phoenix wants $125/wheel to refinish. I like the idea because the car then remains stock. I could also purchase a set of 2.0 Fuchs or Pedrinis (is my '74 "a later hubcentric" setup??). I think the 2.0 Fuchs may look a little shiny for a 1.8 with painted bumpers.

Any recommendations or thoughts?

azbanks,Thank you for that information! I'll send him a PM.

Tsunamiboy,
I'm planning to paint my wheels with Chrome paint. yours look great!
Can you tell me the Brand name of chrome paint you used?
Did you have any problems with paint peeling or??
Thank you.....Dave
