    Both look great but I too think the bottom ones have that little something extra! :thumbs2:

    So far we've been a lot of help. :rofl2:I'd go with the bottom wheels on one side and the others on opposite.
    Or maybe the other way around.:rofl2:

    I vote for the top ones. They compliment the wagon, and are more period correct. the bottom ones take the eye away from the overall great look of the wagon.

    I can't go smaller anymore because since these pics, I have put on 14", 6-piston brakes, and they won't fit in a smaller than 17" wheel...

    Thanks for the input guys! I used to love the top ones, but the bottoms have grown on me.

    I vote for the top one's too. My .02 is that the top one's make it look more sporty, more hot rod theme. The bottom (to me) look more cruiser/"show" looking...but you can't go wrong with either.
