I'm building a 62 typhoon, nothing to special, house of color orange paint, repo springer forks, og crank, and ape hanger bars. What I need to do is buy the wheels and I don't know if I should get some stock looking 32? spoke or some 100 spoke gangster wheels. I can get either for the same price so I just some opinions.
 
sometimes the over spoked wheels make everything look like a low rider. And I bet theyre a pain to clean!!!
 
if it was that frame we got a peak at a while back, i would put 32 spoke wheels with white painted rims and redline tires from electra, that would make me happy :D

Yup that's the frame. That would be nice but I already bought a set of black Schwinn Typhoon Cord tires.
 
since you're asking, tons of spokes = yuck.

I'd go with an S-2 or same look with those tires.
