or are they even available anymore? I've been searching, but have come up empty. Looking for 15x8 and 15x10 with a 5 on 5 pattern. Yes, totally old school, I know.

I believe their enkeis (sp?) I had a them on a van years ago.

Bad Karma · 08-21-2006, 02:31 PM

That's what I remember too, but the vast resources of the Interweb hasn't turned up much. I found some on ebay, but they were the wrong bolt pattern. It said they were made by ION. I shot him an email to see if he has the sizes I want.

post on craigslist as wanted see what you come up with

C&C Chevy · 08-21-2006, 05:59 PM

These are US Wheels. They're inexpensive and plentiful. Just an alternative if you can't find the other wheels around!

MylilBowTie · 08-21-2006, 08:16 PM

Those are steel I think he wants aluminum.

bodydropped · 08-21-2006, 11:39 PM

they look like old skool centerline type rims

beaterC10 · 08-22-2006, 09:46 AM

Those look a lot like the wheels I found on my truck when I bought it.

Bad Karma · 08-22-2006, 10:56 AM

Thanks, guys. Yeah, I'm looking for the aluminum ones. They were so popular back in the day, you'd think they would be easy to find... As far as I can tell, they were Enkei 26 series wheels, don't know if anyone else made them for sure.

Try a rim from WELD WHEELS, they are close and look great.

thundertiger25 · 08-23-2006, 01:37 PM

American Racing also made these wheels. AR-781 was what they called them they made both steel and aluminum.

I have an 15x8 aluminum set, I got them from a parts truck someone was using. The only problem with my set is one is really messed up, I haven't gotten around to taking it to a wheel shop to get it repaired.

I think Eagle also made these wheels at one point and time.

They look like american racing or centerline style wheels.

Progressive Directional ?

Bad Karma · 08-25-2006, 10:58 AM

Thanks guys, I may call that guy in Houston and see if he feels like shipping... Hopefully I can piece together a set in the near future. Why is it when I can't find something, I MUST have it????
