    I know there's been a lot of talk over the years about where to buy Astros. I just got a set from Summit. 15x7" for $139 and free shipping. I ordered them on Thursday at 4:30 pm and they were at my door today (Saturday)
    Just thought I'd share incase anyone is in the market.

    Do those have the extra gussets welded on the back of the spokes for strength?

    astro was the manufacture of the first supreme wheel.

    There are Supremes and Supreme II. The Supremes are steel center and rim like the originals. Supremes II are composite. The Supreme II is only available in 15 inch sizes. Supremes are Uni-Lug and Supreme II's are car specific. Now some of this info might have changed recently. The last 14 inch set I bought were from Allied and had gussets on back. The 14 inch are harder to get, but that is here in North Carolina, other places like Calif. they are probably pretty easy to get.

    I got mine and they are 14x6 with a 2.75 offset from Discount Tires store. They are made by U.S. Wheels and they were 129.00 each. If you are having problems in NC just go to the Discount Tires stores.
