    Looking for an entire set of rally wheels for my 68 Riviera but will take 1.2.3 or 4. 15x6 wheel size with 5x5 bolt pattern. Please let me know if you're selling and the condition of the wheel(s). I am in Orlando, FL. Thank you!

    Still have original type drums, on all four wheels? From what I have learned, you need the earlier #853 rally wheels as opposed to the 71 up #895 type wheels. Both look very similar, both have 5 x 5 bolt pattern. From what I have read here, the later wheels will not clear the large drum assembly, on the pre single caliper (1969) cars. I have one earlier wheel. Have 9 of the later #895 wheels. I would try Dennis aka Wheelz first, he is in Florida and may have an entire set for you.

    Yes, all new brakes, hardware and drums. And yes, my research has discovered the same thing... the #853 is the only option. I sent Wheelz a PM so we'll see what he has to offer. Thank you for the help!

    I have one (1) new one that was the spare in my 69 when I totaled it last summer. The rim still has the original tire on it and was never used. The car went away, but I was able to keep the wheel.
    $100 and I can deliver to BG, if you can find someone to bring it the rest of the way, then your 1/4 of the way to your goal.

    Yep, saw that one but the price is absurd. I know it's CraigsList and all but damn. Brand new reproductions are less than a grand.

    You can have the single #853 I have for $25 (plus the ride) pm me if interested. Needs to have painted areas refinished but not rotted on beads or rusted to heck.
