Wheels

Hi all,
looking at rims and saw the american racing vn50157034500's and wondering if anyone has run them? how nice are they? look similar to rallye wheel to me.

Does anyone repro the 70 steelies?

 

Funny to see you post. Was just yesterday thinking the Nationals are coming up & I needed to get w/you.

 

I think those wheels look great on a Chevelle or 442.

If you want a Buick style aftermarket wheel, try these:

Not sure if they would qualify as a 100% correct repro, but steelies are reproduced

Thanks I will check those out.

 

Good to know its a option. Thanks!

 

I have the vn501 wheels on mine. I swapped the center caps in favor of Buick rally ones. I like the look.

 

Could you post some pics? What size did you run front and back?

 

I am selling these for a friend. Only had tires mounted briefly. He decided to go another direction. Beautiful white powder coat on new Wheel Vintiques 15x8s. 4in BS.
Wheels were $135 ea and the powder coat $225. He has $495 in them but would sell for $250 a pair.

 

Them circle wheels were $$$$$$ pre covid...I bet they bonkers now...wheels have skyrocketed

 

I have 15x6 in the front, and 15x8 in the back. 235/60/15 F, and 275/60/15 R. The rears don’t have the Buick caps in this picture.

 

Maybe a better pic

 

And 1 with the center in place

 

Nice thanks...they look really good to me and those rims won't break the bank.

 

Nope.

 

How did you get the center cap to attach to the wheel?

 

I have the 17 in. with 285-40 Nitto tires. (1" lower springs)

 

It took a little tweaking. I used a pair of large channel locks, and GENTLY squeezed the tabs, to make the diameter a little smaller. They snapped in place, snug as a bug.

 

I had Cragar 510’s on my old project car. No longer made but I liked them a lot.
