Have you tried Summit Racing, or Jegs? You will also have to buy trim rings and center caps for them too.

Thanks,I just got off the phone with Summit and they do have them in stock,a few hundred dollars cheaper. the Light gray finish center caps  Requires 1/4-20, 1/2 in. tall screws.Which they do not carry.I am a little confused on how the center caps are mounted.

They are mounted from the back side of the rim with 5 screws.

Year one has the screws if you want exact,Probably a hunt at a good hardware store might find the same screws much cheaper, I opted not too hunt :dunno: Rich.

Even though I have to wait and it cost a little more,I ordered the wheels through Year One.They have the screws,and also the left hand thread lugs.
Thanks Al

I can't remember who but someone here mentioned that the wheels from summit need extra painting or something because they end up rusting?? Can anyone clarify that? I'll be in the market for some new wheels soon.

This sounds dumb, but why do you need left hand thread lug nuts?  Or are the right hand threaded ones the odd balls?  Or am I the odd ball?  You don't have to answer that las one!

The Rallye's from Summit are Wheel Vintique- Same as the ones from Jegs. BTW Jegs is a lttle less expensive. Just got a pair of 15X8'S

On my 70 Cuda the driver side wheels have left hand threads.The reason they did that,someone else is going to have to answer.

Thankfully they quit doing this on E-Bodies in 1970. It was all a theory that in the wheels moving forward, this would keep all lug nuts tight. Brilliant.  :dupe:
