    Does anybody know the phone number or Web Site of the company reproing the 70 GS wheel? I was told that it might be Specialty Wheels?

    Another Thought

    I've got 15" wheels on my GS that came off of an 84 Regal. Same 5-spoke sort of design, and the car rides a lot better with them on. I have the original 14" wheels still, and unless you put them next to each other, you couldn't really see a difference. Pic attached.

    Better selection of good tires for a 15" too, and they are probably a lot cheaper than repro's. Not a bad alternative.

    specialty wheel

    Specialty Wheel also makes them but I don't have a phone # handy and can't seem to find a website. They are in Utah or Idaho I think. Anyone have a Hemmings handy??? Always have an ad in there. Stockton Wheel in Calif also has or makes them. Patton

    Stockton Wheel

    I sent a wheel to Stockton Wheel for straightening. It was delivered to them 1-21-03 and they called me before Noon (their time) on 1-24-03 to get my credit card info because the wheel was finished.

    Cost for repair= $45 + $22 s/h.

    While on the phone, I asked the guy if they sold this type wheel. He said he doesn't have any on the shelf, but he can build them (to the customer's specs, my wheel was a typical 15x7 rallye.). The price he quoted was $95 + $22 s/h per wheel.

    I spoke with Bobby @ 1-800-395-9433, or (209)320-8720.

    I was so floored by the quick service that I forgot to ask what they had to do to repair my wheel.
