i gotta agree with bobs409, the biggest problem was (is..) chrome turning loose from the aluminum centers. i have had several sets, some i bought new , some i bought used, and thats the problem that i have experienced.
yes they only come in 5 lug, i have seen some older 4 lug rims, and a nother 5 spoke called a cragar gt that look ed the same, but had a smaller center cap. i think one of the chief culprits in the center peeling off is dog urine.
i have kicked several mutts off of my rims over the years. but seriously,
for looks and style, i will take a set of cragar ss rims over anything else, any day. just my 2 cents.
