Yup, those are the same ones. And another set on my shoebox, good wheels so far.

 

I think the "Solid" or the "Gennie" are much better looking, for ten or twenty bucks more I think. The smoothie is definitely not wheel that existed in the 50's if you care about finicky details like that.

 

These belong to Cuzzindeke. He bought them from Coker.

 

tomato,tomoto,,,,but I know what you mean

These are SMOOTHIES on Daves truck,



These are STEELIES on my truck,,,,notice mine have the vents,,

Look really nice. wonder what the rear wheels size is.
He bought those already yellow ?

 

quote (Look really nice. wonder what the rear wheels size is.

I prefer 'em this way...

 

The STEELIES look good too....

 

Here are some shots of mine.



I actually traded these for a set of wires that came with my coupe. Call me stupid, but these are what I wanted and I got them.

Oh boy.., I love 34 coupes....
call us stupids in that case, I also like those better than wires.....

 

These are what I am running. Although they are originally 39 Lincoln wheels if I remember correctly.

 

The factory original wheels on my Edsel are"smoothies" with no vents.

 

These are my OEM wheels (chromed) with Coker 670 X 15 Cl***ic's and spider caps.

 

M.J., These are as cl***ic as it gets, can't go wrong. Here is a chance to become an Alliance member and save 10% on you wheel order. This would pay for a good portion of your Alliance membership and fund this great project along. Nice Merc brother!!-- Sololobo

 

That's cool, I've never seen those. I didn't mean I didn't like any rims without vents, I just meant the aftermarket "Smoothie" rim that is offered now, on traditional hot rods.

 

...

 

That's a sharp setup.

 

Coker does NOT make the wheels they sell. They get their wheels from Wheel Vintique. Custom backspacing was not available either.

Below are some photos of the wheels I got from Jason at http://www.earlywheel.com. Excellent service and next day shipping even for custom wheels.

 

Here is mine.I got the Coker chrome smoothies with baby moons and wide whites.I now think the whitewalls are too wide.Might look better when I drop it more.I had to use 15in wheels to clear my discs.

 

These are the "gennies", the front are 16" X 6", the rear are reversed and are 16" X 8".........powdercoated RED (yep..red).

 

Mh, this set looks great
