Default Re: Where to buy Yenko style wheels?

I saw a set last summer with center caps from SS wheels. The guy had cut off the top of the American centers so that the ss centers would seat all the way down at the bolt ears. Then epoxied it in place. Looked really nice. I did a double take, and the guy started laughing...he said everyone does a double take!

Seems like he said the ID of the SS centers was almost exactly equal to the OD of the A/R centers at the base. Even if that's not so, I would think you could come up with something to shim it so it stayed centered.

Anyway, it looked centered while standing still in the parking lot. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Guys- what wheel would look best on '67 granada gold rs/ss, black top? Right now it has the big SS hubcaps, 14" wheels.
Thanks.

Personal preference I guess, I like the factory Rallyís with redlines,
My other set of wheels is a Big and small Polished Drag Centerlines,
For the day 2 look.

Bud.

Clint,
Are those the original "mag-style" five spoke hubcaps? I've been looking for a set of those...
