lets see your favorite wheels!!!!

WOW! Very nice.

 

i like torque thrusts

 

Love that look on the 55-57 Chevy Trucks!!! How much tire/wheel do you have under there?

 

The Cragars on my '35 tub.

 

You nailed it! that's what I would like to slide under my 59 Bel Air. Just going to require mini tubs!

 

Kind of partial to mine.

 

8 lug ponchos ~ sweet.

 

Spindle mount Torque Thrusts and either Halibrands or ET III wheels in 16x12

 

Cragars for me

 

Love slots too,way cool

 

these came with a flat center cap

 

How bout some chrome steelies instead?

 

Had these for 46 years

 

americans...........15x6 fronts made for midyear vettes , 15x8 1/2" rears widened to 10".

Times 4 with buttons

 

Just picked these up for the bobber...

 

Not too many customs shown yet...so...Knock off Lancers, had the real thing on my '51 in '61. These are currently mounted on chrome rims, thats why they are chrome all the way to the wide whites. Plan on changing to painted steel wheels later.

 

What are they? Twenty-inch Dodge Ram spares?

I've been in the mood for Halibrands lately... Starting with smoothies!







There there's the back side...



Then there's these guys...



And these...




Or these again...




I really like just a ton of regular old steel and spoke wheels as well... That's already been covered here though.

 

cragar ss then aluminum slots.15 x3 1/2s and fattys out back.make even a ugly car seem to have a chance at lookin good.

 

Thanks! The wheels measure out at 16x12 with a 5" backspace, and the tires are Hoosier Pro Street radials in 29x15.50-16.

For years, I had 15x10 magnesium Torq-Thrusts with Mickey Thompson Sportsmans, but wanted to go with a radial tire. I shopped radial tires for a long time, and I nearly gave up until I went on Hoosier's website and found their Closeout section. They were selling discontinued sizes, and they listed a 29x15.50-16 for $80 each (!), so I bought 2 pairs. That meant that I had to get a 16" wheel, so after careful measuring, I determined that I could fit a 12" under the truck, so I had Scott at ET make me a pair of Fuelers in 16x12. To afford the new wheels, I sold the magnesium Torq-Thrusts to a fellow HAMBr in Pennsylvania who is building a really cool '57 Chevy gasser. After the beginning of the year, I am going to buy the fronts. I am going with an ET Dragmaster in 15x5. They have the spindle-mount look that I love, but are a bolt-on configuration.

My first choice was Real Rodders Wheels, but they wanted $400 extra per wheel to widen a 10" to a 12", and that was way out of my price range. I love their stuff, and the quality is outstanding, but they sure are spendy. ET was my second choice, but it worked out great. To me, the ET III wheel looks best in 16", and at least 10" wide.

 

Vintage Jeep. 16X4.5

 

I'm with Mutley-some cars just look good with Cragars

 

kinda looks like a bunch of little dicks and balls.

 

That's what it's supposed to be... San Francisco's favorite wheel.

 

You got perfect taste in wheels... Anybody reproducing the smoothies?

 

real rodders wheels make a smoothie , but im not sure in magnesium , they have exellent productand great to deal with

 

My favorite wheels are the ones wrapped in bias plies and covered by a hub cap.
