Default A Set of 5 perfect ORIGINAL KH Bolt ON Wheels and Tires

We all have to play the hand we are dealt and major health issues are taking center stage for me. I am selling all my Corvette stuff and the car will be last. Up for sale now is a complete perfect set of 5 KH 1967 Bolt On aluminum wheels They were restored over ten years ago by the best, Dave Cosner. I purchased them from Ken and Gary Nabers. I had been looking for a long time. They are one year only and option N89 on your tank sticker means your car was 1 of only 720 ordered with these wheels. I also have 5 brand new Firestone 775x15 blackwall bias ply tires that are not mounted. A complete set of these wheels are very rare and are a must have if your car was so equipped and they are correct on any 1967 Corvette. Send me your email and I will send photos.
Wheels and Tires separate or together.
Wheels alone - $22,000

Would you be interested in trading for a set of 5 original 63 promo K-H wheels with original two wing spinners that came off a promo car; about 50 sets known to be made before getting sued by Dayton wheels. I would want yours wheels plus $10,000

When I said restored I meant cleaned up. There has never been any damage to these wheels. Go on the NCRS website classifieds and I have several photos posted. They are list under C2 parts - chassis

OK, its saying your photo is too large to use the paperclip option, so use Photobucket.

(note, Ill delete the other related posts and not make any more- dont want to distract from your thread)

1967 KH original bolton wheels have no serial numbers or dates. They don't have a KH logo anywhere either. Those that know these wheels know what identifies them as real and original.

Thank you I did not know that! I will keep my bolt-ons on my 67 that I have; they are exact same fins as yours and mine have nothing on the back either, thank you for making my day!

Having said that, there is one very big difference between repros and originals. If you notice in my photos on the back side of the wheel, the real ones have two rows of raised ribs opposite each other. There are eight of these ribs on each side. The repro wheels do not have these. Additionally the original wheel lip is deeper than the repros, even the new ones. The repros are great looking, but if you have a tank sticker with N89, then it is 1 of only 720 cars and only the real ones will do.

I have a 400/convertible with original 45,000 miles with partial tank sticker I would never take off my car but somehow it did not survive like the thousands of other tank stickers. Some guys have all the luck

Thanks for your questions and comments. These are not cheap, but the REAL DEAL never is, particularly when it is rare as these are.

I really don't want to part with these wheels. Ther a considerably less than a 1000 sets out there. You can't buy these at Corvette Central or your local Chevy Dealer. If seriously interested send me a PM with an offer. Thanks
