    I recently acquired a nice set of early Crager SS wheels with center caps I've never seen before. Are these early Crager caps and if not what are they? Thanks!

    Cool. Did Sears list them as Cragers, if not what did they call them?

    Ive seen that same SR logo on a lot of 60s period Sears stuff....clock radios and the like... its a conversation starter thats for sure...

    Are those wheels NOS? I think those are the nicest Sears wheels and caps ive ever seen!

    No, the wheels are used but they couldn't have been on very long. Figured they were a real score.
    I guess in my younger days everything I bought from Sears was Kenmore, Allstate, or Craftsman - just do not remember the logo at all. Now that I know they are definitely staying on the wheels.
    Thanks for identifying!!
