Don't know what brand they are.. They look like American Racing Torq Thrusts but they are not Torq Thrusts.. (American racing isn't cast into them). There are NO casting marks at all..
The front ones are 15 x 7 with 3 3/4 inch backspacing and the rear ones are 15 x 8.5 with 3.5 inch backspacing..

It depends if the blue '68 will be race ready or not.. If it is, I'll trailer the race car, otherwise, I'll drive the yellow '68 up there..

Did you find your trailer, or get a new one?

You'll have to show me your pic spot if I ever get my car down to Clearwater
