    I think you will find that the Torque Thrust look a likes made by Appliance which are close to identical to the Americans clear the the Corvette disc brake calipers. At least the 15x7s do. I can't remember if the 15x6s do. I would like to think they do. Real world prices on these are usually much less than Torque Thrust "D"s and for me look much better.

  15. Thanks, Steve! I've been fortunate enough to have some great hot rod mentors that didn't let me screw it up too badly.

    These are going on my bomb. 6.95/14 Coker B.F. Goodrich's on old 14x6 American's and 9.00/15 Towel City's on old 15x8.5 no names. I know this doesn't do much good since they're not on a car but I will re-post at mock-up time. IMG_1791.JPG
