    Does anybody know if the wheels are readily available yet from Wheel Vintiques, Specialty Wheel, Summit, Coker, etc. ?

    Yes they are, I have bought two sets in the last month or so, both from Specialty Wheel. Lead time was about a month.

    Be sure to specify what kind of lip you want, the wider WG or the later 71 up style. I actually sent them a 71 wheel to have them make me a set exactly like them, in relation to the lip width.

    All mine were 15x7's, two sets of five.

    I received a set of rally wheels with custom backspacing from Wheel Vintiques about a month ago, and it took them about three weeks to fill my order.

    Were you happy with the final product from Specialty?? I need to get a set for my 72 Stage1 and just wanted to check with you to see if you recommend them. Anyone that has a nice set that wants to sell them....just let me know. Thanks. Tom

    I wonder if anybody would be interested in setting up a group purchase on these wheels ? I'm sure there would be enough demand to make it worthwhile.
