Cool wheels,
Love the side door to the dickie seat !

 

Just picked up some 15x10 8 lug slot mags
super rare

 

I know that weld made these but, can anyone tell what they are called, model/style. I've had them for damn near 20 years. They came on a car that I bought.
Thanks



Got my answer from The Claw. Thanks for looking.

Here are my bear paws. I use these for the track. I am in need of some halibrand champ wheels 10x15 for the street if anyone has some leads. the front wheels came off one of the hawiian funny cars. The rears came off of the gretchko fuel altered.

 

I have your other pair in my back yard.

 

Got the rims from another Hamber. Don't know who made them. Spindle mount fronts and KO's rears.The 3 bar is halibrand. Any help? Thanks

? Weld?
Cool as hell whatever they are.
What are the dia's and width's?
? Spindle mount?
Do all four have pin drive holes in them?
Any photos of back side of wheels?

 

The rims are 15 by 7" and 15 by 8", They are 5 pin on the back side. The front rims have a spindle with bearings, the rear is like a Halibrand knock off.

 

I think they may have been limited production wheels by Carriage Works.

Far from rare.

 

But gorgeous.

 

Close?

 

E.T.'s rare -n- odd---->



and a BUNCH of non friendly super trick s
mostly 15x3.5 dual pattern

 

I picked these up from "Frames" here on the hamb. Halibrand Indy 16x6; usually drilled for 6 pin and a true knock off. These were factory drilled by Halibrand for 5.5 big ford. These were used on early Indy cars as fronts, the rears used were 18". There are embossments for balancing weight studs, but they have never been drilled. I used the modern day Halibrand knock off cover kit, media blasted and washed with thinned down coat of magnesium color paint.

 

big duece i had some of those in 13 inch once...
yours are KQQL

 

Some people that see them tell me they are rare.. magnesium.....the tires are actually recapped...

 

A few of my halibrand sets

 

I love some mag wheels.

 

Front drive wheels I made for the "SHOWBOAT"

 

Fenton Gyros, Rockets, US Indys and bottom picture is a smooth dish Forsight.

 

15x8.5 Appliance 5 spokes. One-piece cast, 5 on 5 1/2" pattern, beautifully "restored" including blasted centers and a CNC replicated machine finish on the rims.

 

These aren't rare but I'm have more problems finding them cheap. 2nd series FWD Cadillacs, 4-3/4" bolt pattern 15x6. Made by Kelsey Hayes. Fit the rear of my LSR roadster perfect.

 

Look like old Boyd Coddington billet wheels to me.

 

Bob, if memory serves, Weld called these "Saturns" or something like that...

Steve The Claw sent me a pic of a poster from 1991 & they are called Vanes.
