    Does anybody know who can make a set of chrome reverse wheels with old Ford Centers and Buick Outer rims ?

    Wheel Kid use to make them but now only they only specialize in wires.

    Any info will be appreciated, Thanks in Advance, Scott

    I would guess Wheel Smith. Why does the shell have to be Buick?

    I made about a hundred of them when I was a kid. They weren't chrome though. Couldn't afford chrome.
    It's a bitch getting under the car to check the air in the tires. No, I am not interested in doing them now.
    I can tell you how it's done and get them not to wobble.

    They do have a nice taper. As per my little pick up there.
     
  8. If they have the wheels or you might have to find them and then get them chromed. But try Collins Wheel in Bellflower, they made the Chevord wheels on the Panel.


    Wait, this is a good sign........right? :)
