Western wheels
Has the NCRS Restorer magazine ever done an article on Western wheels? Which issue?

I would suspect that they also supplied the original alloy Corvette wheels during that same time period.

Western Wheel/Kelsey-Hayes supplied the factory-installed optional alloy wheels for the 1978 Chevrolet Z-28 Camaro. I clearly remember seeing Western Wheel stamped or cast into the original wheels.

Some of the alloy wheels introduced for the C3's were made by Western Wheel...
If you can blow up this image, you can clearly see Western Wheel and Made In U.S.A. cast into the back side...
I have another set that have Kelsey Hayes , along with MEXICO cast in them.
Good luck... GUSTO
