Old style cragar ss vs the new style ss

[Day2_69Z]

Hey guys,,, just because I'm a bit younger than MOST of Yinz....

I never owned anything but unilug aluminum painted lug area Cragars till these I bought last year at Summit, where they allowed me to hand pick the wheels I wanted.
Fully Chromed looks better to me than a cover up for Cheap Plating techniques of the 70's....they painted where they didn't chrome ! and the area rusted quickly unless babied.

The direct fit is a way better attachment point using conical wheel nuts that won't loosen unlike the unilugs. The unilugs need periodic or weekly tightening as the heat from the brakes expand 3 different metals to loosen.
Aluminum wheels, steel washers and steel nuts.....just saying.....
