Which Steel Wheel ?

Looking for ideas for new steel wheels, they will be for fenderless ride, I'm going to be running 5:60 x 15 front and 7:00 x 16 on rear, firestone white wall. The bolt circle will be 5 on 4.75. I have looked into wheelsmith, Coker etc..

 

I think that wheelsmith is the wheelkid here on the HAMB if I am not mistaken (I am regularly mistaken by the way). I donot know about Coker but I do know that the wheels that the wheel kid outs out are American made, if being made in America is a concern to you then he would be the one to contact.

 

Wheelkid is Rally America. He did a set for me with original 56 Chevy centers. Does great work.

See told you I would get it wrong. But I have you guys to depend on.

I have not bought a thing from him by the way but I have not heard anything but good about what comes from his place.

 

Another one for Rally America. I got a pair of wheels about a month ago. Made to order and fast shipping. I didn't know he was a Hamber!

 

Yep, call Jimmy, you wont be disappointed.

 

if your gonna run caps i have these !

 

Just to let you know rally America does not make or modify 16" rims, called today : there prices for 15s look good.

 

I've pinstriped wheels for Wheelsmith for several years , they're a father and son company with a few employees and have always treated me well. I have a set on my roadster with no problems whatsoever .

How do these look on a vehicle? Do the lug hole stick out like a sore thumb?

 

I have bought two sets from Wheelsmith and have been very happy working with them. Their wheels run true.--TV

Coker recently bought out Wheel Vintique. I bought 6 steelies from Wheel Vintique over the past three years and at least two of them had runout so bad that they couldn't be straightened. I'd buy from Wheelsmith. I've heard good things about them.

 

I believe Coker wheels are now "Superior" brand. Seems they told me they didn't handle Wheel Vintiques anymore.

 

I have found the opposite. I purchase 3 set of wheels from them they all where great. I set I never even balanced.
