18" Wheel from Rally America

I know its not a DIVCO but it's as close as you can get for an all new wheel, Comes in 5.5" wide only.


What do you think?
Jimmy

 

looks good, What caps fit? what size bolt pattern?

 

Sweet Jimmy! How much?

 

Cool! More info please.
Clark

 

Looks great! Any other info available? Bolt pattern, backspace, ect...

 

Those are 5 on 5.5 Bolt pattern, but we can also do them in 4.5 and 4.75 in the OEM style with the outside knob caps. Stock 40-48 Ford cap fit this style and we can do any possible backside, but it's pretty limited on a 5.5" rim. They are $200 each.

what do i think? it makes me wish i had something i could use those wheels on...

 

WOW!
I love them! they're going to be a popular wheel with this crowd.

 

Cool.......very cool........

I think they'll sell well once the latest TRJ hits the stand.....

 

Those look great, now i just need to round up some cash for a set.

 

Hello Jimmy

Great wheels.

Maybe I shouldn't post these in this thread, but here's some Jimmy made for me. I think they're really cool. I wanted them to look like the modified wheels they made back in the lat 40's early 50's. Jimmy and his dad did it

Thanks, Magnus

 

Magnus, what is the artillary next to your big steelie? I have a single one just like that, except it has a ring to take a 40-48 cap instead of the small cap. I bet that's one of the McLean small rings, isn't it?

 

Yes Jimmy added the small ring to accept the 32-35 Ford cap. I bought those wheels from him too. I don't know exactly what the wheels are for. They are 5.5" on 5 but the ons made for Ford should take the later Ford cap, or? These looks just like Nimrods, in my eyes exactly I have seen others to that differs in the area around the stud holes, but are missing the little clips for mounting the later caps.

Hopefully I'll find a way to get the french curve caps on those

 

That is exactly what I've been looking for- great job Wheel Kid.


I'll be calling you soon

 

Man, those things where clean when I sent them, must have gotten a little rusty on the boat ride over.
Jimmy

 

They look worse in the pic but it's really just rusty water. It'll buff right off

 

What size tires can be run on those (is there a narrow enough radial).. thinking of a set for my woodie..

Can you get with a chrome lip (so look alike a trim ring or are trim rings available)

 

Trim rings are available, I think they are around $90 each though

I took Kelsey 16's off my car and put on a set of stock 18 wires. It has 700 rears and 600 steering tyres. After a little getting used to I love the look and can't imagine ever going back to 16 anything. I get a lot of questions and interest regarding the wheel/tyre combo.

Those 18 steelies are neat, actually I would have preferred them over my wires. I think I might need a set for the 5W.

Here's a couple of pics for reference on how the 18 wheel/tire combo looks on a duece.........

 

Looks cool, now how about some 16"-18" artillery wheels?..

 

I really like your car!! The wheels look great.

 

What's available for 18" tires?

 

Quite a few from Coker....
I'm running Excesilors and Firestones........
