Gordo79, I have 4 Western Bullet Wheels (without caps) that I'm trying to get rid of.

Here's a link to what they look like:

http://akhwheels.com/pages/showWheel.php?pk=175

I'm willing to sell them or trade them for stock wheels. They're in pretty good shape.

Also not to de-rail this thread but, Vetteonr: Can you place these spinners on your Crager SS's?

http://www.ecklers.com/product.asp?d...7HB2J517V3D71A

I've bought them for stock wheels when I get them but if I can swing some Crager SS's I'd like to place them on those too.

Jrodvette,
What size ZR-1 wheels/tires are on your car? What tires/sizes? What kind/size spacers are you running?

I think they look fantastic this way, especially on a '78-'79! (Sorry, no pictures to post.)
Or, have them chromed......end all the polishing...well almost all.
Real hard to beat the look of the stock wheels. I had mine done at www.calchrome.com at about 125 each.

Hard to beat the looks of TT2's. Not to interupt the tread but, Red73, what size are you moving up to, front and back.
