Supremes with goofy MOPAR 5 on 4" bp?

I need a set....do they even exist? I'd go for a set in 13", 14" or even 15".... skinny CRAGARS or TRU-SPOKES too.

What say yooos?

 

The Cragars exist, I have an ad in a Rod&Custom from '68 or so in the front reading room announcing their availability. I have actually seen them too. But, the Mopar guys that are into A body stuff are big into them and they can get pricey. The TRU-S I kinda doubt, Supreems I don't have a clue... I know the best dodge for the early bolt pattern blues is to convert over to 5 on 4 1/2" stuff with late model "A" or "F" body spindles and such, and redrill the rear. Problem solved...Kinda.

 

How about going to something like a slot or Halibrand with a flat center that can be redrilled? I happen to know an O/T Maverick that looks F'n awsome with a set of slots...And is for sale too... Perhaps I've said too much.

 

call dave at true spoke, hes a good dude. he may be able to get you a set of new ones. he is making supremes now, as with his spokes. tell him I sent ya.

Yeah, Chip. Kind of the point on the re-drill. I am so DONE with mentally playing with myself on the Dart. All I am going to do at this point is go through the front end....throw some wheels on....lower the rear a bit, run same size 13's or 14's and call it done. I'm into liquidating right now as I'm really into getting the pickup on the road.

Ryno....if I can't find a CHEAP set of chrome wheels I'll definitely go this route.

 

i've got a set of 14" x 6" Cragar S/S with 5 on 4" bp on my Valiant BUT I bought them back in 1966!! Don't know if they still make them as not that long after I got mine they went to the multi-fit stuff.

 

Last time I was looking through the vintage wheels in the storage room at a local old time parts store (opened in 1946) I saw a set of the slotted steel chrome wheels in the 5 on 4" plymouth bolt pattern. These are the smooth steel chrome plated wheels with the kidney bean slots. I can check again if you like.

 

I know the Cragers were made I had them on my Valiant.

 

There are out there. When I had the Dart wagon I seen someone was making the supreme look a likes available in the 4" bp. Sorry, I can't remember who but I thought they were listed on Evil bay!

 

Sure A-bomb...lemmee know.

 

I've seen Keystone Kustomag wheels with that pattern as well. Not sure I've ever seen a Supreme though.

 

I might have a line on something like that... Gimme a couple days to look around.

 

ive got a set of al.slots that are in good shape with 5 on 4.and i will NEVER use them.interested?

 

This company has some 5 x 4 inch wheels listed but doesn't look like they have any complete sets.

Thanks 256....really needs to be chromies of some sort.

Yeah, Nick, lemmee know!

 

AMENDMENT time...Not looking for aluminum wheels BUT one exception would be a set of 5 spoke American or ET or... Just gotts to be skinny and have the goofy 5 on 4" pattern (4 of 'em)! Keep an eye out for me...thanks!!!!

 

i have nothing 5 on 4" most of mine is 5 on 4 3/4"

 

A-body guy here....have some okay Keystones I would let go....but not real ready to let go of my Cragers.....they did make a 15/7 as I have a pair that was running MnH's...

 

They are probably closed memorial day but I will check later this week and get a picture if still there.

 

I bought a new set of Cragers for my 68 Barracuda but they had to search 3 different warehouses to find a complete set since they were discontinued. This was in 1979. Today I guess would be much tougher.

 

Summit has 14 x 6 Cragars on ebay for around $341.27 a set free shipping.You can get the same deal just calling them with out going thru ebay.But you can see the picture on there.Don't forget to buy a set of 11/16's lug nuts if you buy Cragars.

Thanks....I guess that will be my backup if I can't find them used.
Stillrunners...I know I'm being picky, but I've never dug Keystone Kl***ics, thanks though.

A few years ago Team III had a booth at the Streetrod Nats and had their E-T cl***ic on display. It was a 5 on 4 bp. They still have the 5 on 4 available. http://www.team3wheels.com/cl***ic_v.html

 

yep me too....unless they were on a BO27H.....

 

Spun out on yet another direction....running 15" steel wheels with deep dish Moons
