    Any style Halibrand?

    The magnesium no window and early sportscar versions are remade as well.

    And several versions of the Cobra/GT40 style too...

    Don't think you've got any other options for those.

    Edit: Rebel does seem to have the wheels. Even walked right by their booth at the Roadster Show and didn't think of it.:eek:

    American (china) racing rodmaster", they don't make them anymore, but they come up sometimes. I bought mine new in 06'. I didn't know they weren't made here.

    Should just let it go but can`t. ET III`s are not Halibrand copies. They are a one of a kind and my favorites.

    Yeah, I know, we're trying to come close to what the customer has, and ET are the only ones that make a 16 x 11...

    They don't make them in the size I need any longer.

    Not one to start rumors but I have heard that Team III Wheels are working or going to be coming out with a Halibrand/Real Rodder Wheel look alike ? I heard something to the affect that the Altered Wheels they used to carry looked to thick in the center area so they are remaking this wheel with some modifications to the center of the wheel.

    You could contact Team III to see if there is any date in the near future.
