Here are the new E.T. Vintage front runners and, the U.S. mags painted to match. The back tires are almost10"X30" tall and the fronts are 5.60X15"

 

Heres mine, 15x8.5 rear,15 x 4 front

That loud noise I just heard must have been a nail being struck squarley on it's head.

15X6's and 15X12's

 

Not real HAMB friendly but a real Henry coupe 1st hot rodded 50 years ago and been updated several times. Its ready for another update to suit me.

 

Great thread!!

The 1966 Chevy truck has New Torq Thrust Originals.
front 15 X 5 with 165's,
rear 15 X 8.5 with 285/70/15

 

55 cameo , 15x6, 15x10 americans

 

These look great on everything!

 

15 x 4 Australian copys on front,15 x 8 1/2 Americans aluminum,late 60's ? BIG FAT TIRES AND EVERYTHING!!!!

 

What tires/size are those. They look great. I got the Deep Purple/Machine Head reference.

 

235 60 R15 MT's. Here is a better shot with the flat caps and cut outs on the front bearing covers. Old school road racer covers.

 

that's me looking at the car at super chevy indy. it prompted me to buy my 1st set of torque-thrusts. got 'em at the swap meet right there, 4 15x6 (5 on 4 3/4) disc-brake cut wheels for $200.

when i saw it again the next year, i came home and bought a '69 wagon, too. LOVE that car, and it got me hooked on 5-spokes.

i still have that original set, and lots more. et, fenton, international dragmaster, ansen, you name it, i have it, or have had it.




this is my original set, with the rears widened to 9 1/2 inches by eric vaughn. they've been on several cars, but i've kept them, even though the cars are long gone.



always ran with 205/70/15 and 285/70/15 tires. that cutlass on the '96 power tour. awesome trip, great car, and a couple of mentions by hot rod, thanks to rob kinnan.

 

also, my '62 with 15 x6 and 15 x7, same version of TT as my other set. 205/75/15 and hurst slicks...

 

this pontiac was on ebay a while ago...

 

Dad's 61. Almost ready to hit the road

 

Those are Pro Tracs that Coker Tires sell, they have different sizes.

 

Here are BEFORE & AFTER photos of my '64 'vette.

I sold the Knock-Off wheels and installed 15X5 on the front & 15X7's on the rear.

 

Not sure "Daisys" constitute as Torque Thrusts....but here`s my contribution....

 

Hey Scott rears are from Coker S375 x 15,want to try 15x10 magnesium wheels I have to get tread to lay down more and lessen sidewall bulge.Fronts are 6.00 x 15 old B.F. Goodrich bias ply,do not remember how old they are or where I even got them from?? See you Sat. at Hudson therapy meeting,later, SteveO/THE DUMMY

 

I like polished 5-spokes...Wish I still owned the car!!!

 

15x5 - 135's 15x8.5 - 25570's
