GA WTB: American Racing Daytona 20x8.5 5x5 Gray - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**GAc10boy** · 02-03-2014, 04:29 PM

As title says, looking for 1 AR Daytona 20x8.5 in gray to complete my set. Got a great deal on 3 and as you can guess, they've discontinued them and I'm having trouble finding a 4th one.

Even if you don't have one but know where one is, please pass along info. I've checked all the usual places (ebay, CL, Amazon, internet, etc.) Running out of options. Here's the part number VN80128550405.

PM me or email at robertdpurser@gmail.com.

Thanks, towbar. Saw that earlier and couldn't call by the time they closed. Gonna email them tonight and call them tomorrow.

towbar · 02-04-2014, 08:24 PM

Good luck.....I emailed them numerous times about some ECE lowering stuff and never got a reply from them.......best guess would be to call em.

Emailed them and will call them first thing in morning. Thanks!

**GAc10boy** · 02-05-2014, 03:30 PM

Still no luck. Keep the suggestions coming.

**GAc10boy** · 02-06-2014, 12:28 PM

I know one of my well-connected forumites knows where an extra 20x8.5 Daytona is lying around.

Shoot me a PM, comment here, or email me robertdpurser@gmail.com and I'll respond within the hour.

Love these wheels and willing to pay retail price to get the 4th one. Thanks to all those who have and continue to look!

Simple google search... took me less than a minute.

Thanks, 67ChevyRedneck. I've called every single company that has them listed online and none of them have them in stock. They have them listed but they are getting them manufacturer direct (i.e from AR) and AR doesn't have any.

By the way, those two companies were both sent to me by AR's customer service guy, and not only did they not have any, they're the exact same company that shares a warehouse and inventory.

I might just be out of luck!

67ChevyRedneck · 02-06-2014, 04:47 PM

Well crap, they need to take those down then!

I just completed a complete remodel on the room above our garage. It's a really cool gray blue with new white crown and base trim. Bought an awesome 60" TV that's sitting on one of those fancy fake electric furnaces/TV stands (looks good, not cheesy). It's supposed to be a game/movie/man room and we found an AWESOME leather reclining couch for $650 that we both loved (only one we both agreed on after 4 stores). It came today. My wife sent it away because it had multiple punctures and scratches. The kicker... they can't get us another one until APRIL! Apparently the mfg makes them in batches and they're sold out in the southeast.

Good luck with your search. Someone has to have one somewhere!

CC69Rat · 02-06-2014, 04:57 PM

Robbie -- Call NewStalgia wheel and ask for Mitch. He's a good friend of mine and will help you out. I promise you if there's one out there he will find it. Good dude. I work about 3 min from their warehouse, I have known him for a long time.

I agree they should take them down! Hate that about the couch. Makes me feel a bit better I guess.

Will do, Chad. Appreciate the help. Will report back.

**GAc10boy** · 02-06-2014, 07:20 PM

Talked to Newstalgia and they talked with AR. Apparently there isn't even one with any of their dealers/distributors. Dang!

CC69Rat · 02-06-2014, 08:41 PM

Did you check maybe on a black or chrome version? You might be able to paint it and/or paint them all to match.

**GAc10boy** · 02-07-2014, 11:09 AM

I think I'm just slap out of luck. I've considered every option and just can't come to a reasonable one without moving them on. Hopefully someone will need (1) 20 and (2) 22s.

speedxchanger · 02-07-2014, 12:56 PM

How much would you want for the 3 wheels? Are they 5x5 lug pattern?

Did you originally purchase just 3 wheels or did you buy 4?

Bought 3 before I realized they were discontinued. Waited a few weeks to get them and just got ready to purchase the other only to find there aren't any (that I can nail down anyway).

**GAc10boy** · 02-07-2014, 02:25 PM

In a sudden turn of events, a random ebay seller I messaged last night had one tucked away in his warehouse. He just sent me pictures of it and I can confirm I'm no longer on the hunt. Thanks to all who were helping look and offering suggestions.
