Default Wanted: Cragar G/T Brushed - 26200 Series Rims or Standard - 5000 Series Rims

I am looking for a set of five 15x6, 5 bolt by 4-3/4" bolt diameter (chevy) Cragar G/T rims complete with the red GT inlayed center caps. The rims can be one of the following model types. All the rims below are the same but have a different factory appearance: See Attachments:

Also looking for the corresponding wheel spacer adapter kit (factory part number 29100) used for disc brake option.


Cragar GT Standard - 5000 series rims (factory part number 5044)




Cragar GT Brushed - 26200 series rims (factory part number is 26244)


The rims have a brushed aluminum appearance to them.


Cragar GT Chrome - 26300 series rims (factory part number is 26344)

Good luck finding those. Rare. I have a set of caps, but they aren't painted correctly.
I do have a set of Cragar Grand Prix Wheels with caps I'll sell you. 15x6. Came off a '57. Need to be restored. They look like Torque Thrusts mostly.

I am looking for an original set to complete my restoration project. Hard to find......hopefully my persistence will pay off.

Thanks for the offer. If I cannot find the Cragar GT rims perhaps I will take you up on your offer.

Has anyone seen these rims with black spoke wheels and red or black inlayed GT center caps at the local swap meets?

Might have to consider them if my search comes up empty.

There's a set of 14s on Ebay. Roll on those until you can find 15s.

Brian.. according to the 1969 Cragar GT Factory literature I need a 15x6 rim, with spacer adapter kit 29100, to ensure clearance for my 68 with disc brake option.

Thanks anyways...!

Found the wheel spacer adapter kit (factory part number 29100) used for disc brake option.

Still searching for the Cragar GT 15 x 6 rims.

I saw one single G/T Cap at a swap meet yesterday. That's all I've seen. You'll find them.
