    These are P.S. Engineering true knock off wheels commonly referred to as kidney beans.

    When Phil Schmitt made these for me he was primarily a custom order mfg.
    They are now called PS Vintage Wheels and I would imagine they too will build wheels with any bolt circle.
    Keep in mind, for a set/4, the knock off towers and tri spinners will cost a grand over the wheel price.

    I have all the 6 pin knockoff stuff. We're restoring a vintage sprint car that ran them in the early-mid 60's and want to capture that look so pressure plates are involved. This it can be displayed without having to polish wheels all the time.

    Thanks,
    SPark

    I bought 15x10 torque thrust D wheels and mounted the slicks on them. I can get the rearend finished and the rear fenders radiused now. Down the road I'd like a real old school set, not in the budget right now. Thanks for all the post.
