I've been lugging these wheels around for decades. Can't find squat about info on them. I think they are late sixtys. I sold them to a friend that's building a E-100 for a couple of bucks thinking they would look great on it. Anyway, anyone using them on there rides? Haven't seen many.
I'm running a full set of 15x7 with those oval caps on my daily driver (lowered 2 wheel drive 2000 Blazer)I too have had the wheels forever and wouldn't part with them because they have been on almost every vehicle I've owned at one time or another, they are unilug and I have all the different washers and lugnuts (including metric) to fit anything from 4-1/2" to 5" bolt circle. That covers most applications except early Ford 5-1/2". Great looking wheels.
John (55FORDWGN) really wants these too, but I like to tease him with a pic of them once in a while. They're going on my 61 Galaxie with the along with the brand new wide oval pinstripe whites that came with them. I've since picked up a NOS set of the oval caps for them too.
I like the white pinstripe tires with the wheels. So i guess they are kind of a semi rare wheel then. Very 60's
I love 'em. I use them on a few of my cars. But I sure wish I could find a set of those oval shaped, "Super ET" center caps like in the first post.
Don't seem to rare.. I've got a pair that I've used for rollers in the past. Now just sitting in my way.
That look like what I need for the back of my falcon. They seem to have more offset to the rear than Americans. I want 15X7s for the back. What is the back spacing on these??
You can still buy them from ET wheels IIRC. If they are unilug they are 70's or newer from what I have read. They take offset washers for 4.5 and 5" BP, and on center washers for 4.75" You can still buy the washer from ET also. I bought a full set from them a few years ago.
