Definitely looks like these... Never seen the american racing version before....

I compared them to the cragar's too, but the holes are too egg shaped.

Yeah, the Cragars aren't quite right.

The only thing I don't especially like about the Americans is the "American Racing" writen on their face.

Coach,
I dont know how serious you are about these rims but I was cruising Craigslist and found THIS ad:

http://slo.craigslist.org/pts/3537378590.html

I have no affiliation at all but I THINK its a good price. Personally I don't much like the low profile tires for trucks like ours and of course its too damn far for you but thought you'd like to know these deals ARE out there.

Coach529 02-14-2013 09:53 AM

Re: What rims are these?
 
If those were 15's or 16's I would be all over it........I agree. I like to see more rubber on these trucks!!

NEWFISHER 02-14-2013 12:15 PM

Re: What rims are these?
 
Those make me want to buy some adapters or do a caliper conversion and an axle redrill. I never see them come up used and have been a favorite wheel of mine for a long time. I agree with coach, a little more rubber.

Dan in Pasadena 02-14-2013 04:19 PM

Re: What rims are these?
 
Well, they're not THAT far from you in Oregon! I'd suggest adapters but honestly I'd consider those unsafe with drum brakes. Just too much weight with say a 60 series tire

but they would look frickin cool on your 'Burb!
