    they appear to have a true "Uni-Lug" cut on the bolt holes. which was by.... ET? definitely late 60's early 70's vintage

    I can't find any pics of them anywhere on the internet and it's driving me nuts not knowing! The only clues I have are the uni-lug cut and two of the wheels have Centerline center caps, not that the caps mean anything. Monsterflake thought they were American Racing Lemans remakes, but they are a little different.

    Hi all: Newbi, but a bit of a lurker. If any of you fine folk out there have a set (or part) of the plastic, chrome color, with logo ET, that was used as the center of their "mags", I would be interested. Wayne.

    Could be Fenton, I had a set on my 70 Torino GT but they had like a charcoal finish on the spokes.

    Nothing on the back, kind of makes me think Appliance maybe, I have had a couple sets of them and they never seem to be labeled.

    Keystone Rebel IIRC. Keystone had a uni lug style that was similar to E-T, but the washers don't sit as deep, and don't use a tapered lug. There was a "Rebel Wheel" company (Parnelli Jones was part of it) and they did have a style very similar to this as well, but not unilug.

    I don't think so, but maybe ET had a similar style; if they are ET size and style name will be cast on the back in the bead area. EDIT: I see you already stated nothing on the back.

  13. Hey Jonnie what are the markings on the backside and if it says JAPAN is it all capital letters?? ... I am thinking ETs also .... I was still stuck on American TTs at that time! LOL (still am)

    Nothing on the back, especially not Japan. They are Keystone Rebels, thanks Phillips! I found a picture, so mystery solved.
