Default Re: cars with vintage american racing wheels

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: jer</div><div class="ubbcode-body">There are indeed TTs that do fit the 4 piston calipers,they're just not cheap or easy to find. If you note on the blue car above, the TTs spokes have an inward taper just before they meet the outer rim, not much but maybe 3/8&quot; or so. These also fit the C2 vettes and that's why they're so hard to find. I've got a set on my '66 vette and have been offered $1500 for the set........ain't selling them!</div></div>

jer: the only ones that fit are the original TT D&quot;s from the 60's which those are on that Z28. No current offerings from American to fit these cars except the modern looking two piece polished TT's. Those old wheels are not that hard to find, but they were only made in two widths: 6&quot; and 7&quot;, plus they were only in 15&quot; diameters. Appliance made the exact same wheel and they are easier to find with only subtle differences from what I was told by my old school wheel guy. I have learned a lot from him the past few years regarding tires and wheels.
