Thought I'd try to get some answers here before going to the Chevelle forum. I want to put 15x8" rallye wheels on my 67 Chevelle. I have drum brakes now and I want to convert those to disc. I have power braking already. I'm going to leave the drums on the back alone. I can use steel wheels with the disc brake centers and beauty rings. Or I can use a one piece cast polished or chrome alloy wheel with another center.

Any ideas which wheels and brakes to use?
 
Drum brakes were the worst things about 60's era muscle cars. Lots of companies offer conversion kits, I'd go 4 wheel disk. Cragars always look good on Chevelles BTW if you like old school. Some new era black rims look both cool and sinister at the same time however.

It has Cragars but I want to put the rallye wheels on it. I want it to look more stock at this point.
