They would probably look pretty good, Im not sure about fit though, they may have changed offset or something like that. They should start to show up on ebay pretty reasonably priced soon as so many are going for the larger diameter wheels. There are so many 05 prototypes and show cars out already that are rolling on 20's that 17's and 18's look small.

I dont think that they will fit. When i was looking into new wheels for my 65, i saw the new mustang wheels, and really liked them. I emailed dallasmustang to see if their wheel adapter kit would work for me, (lets you run the new model mustang wheels on the vintage stuff) they said it wouldnt work, that the offset is wrong. So, guessing that those wheels with wheel adapters on my car would be the same on your car w/o the adapters, then they wouldnt work...
