    Does anyone besides Speedway make a 13" metalflake steering wheel? The only other ones i can find are the 15" ones from Mooneyes. I'm looking for one for my T-Bucket and a 15" wheel would be to big.

    I hear both good and bad about Speedway's 'flake wheels. My experience with Speedway's parts has been mediocre at best.

    D&S hot rod parts has the 13.5 metal flake wheels. Google them.

    There are some 12" wheels on Egay.

    The ones you are looking at are the round hole wheels. Check the link in my post. Those are the slotted wheels. Those are offered in 13.5 and 15 inch.

    I rechecked your link. Looks like they have both types. Wonder if they'll make those in 13".

    A little off what you are asking but I have one from Speedway. I'm not sure about the other colors but I got a red one and hate it. The tone is more pink than red. Even against red interior the wheel looks pink. So if you have no choice other than to go with a Speedway think twice if you are going for a red one.

    The slotted flake wheels are offered in 13". Below is from the link.

    Mooneyes is proud to present our very own Metal Flake steering wheels series beginning with the most popular slotted spoke steering wheels and four of the top metal flake colors: Red, Green, Blue and Silver. All four colors available in two sizes: 13.5" and 15" diameters.
     
  9. I just recieved my new RED flake from Speedy, the color is good, but the chrome leaves much to be desired. If the color was lame, it would have gone back without thinking. Always hit or miss with Speedway.
