Different Type Of Vintage Wheel
I found these aluminum spoke wheels this weekend and they grew on me enough to buy them. Now this style of wheel probably won't appeal to most of you,but they have a certain appeal to me. They aren't a favorite of mine and they don't go back as far as the others I like for nostalgia,but they are nostalgic and certainly not something you'll see on other trucks. IMO,I like them more than about anything available today,but I'm old school. I like things just because they are from "back then". I like them more with how the guy made rally wheel centers work with them. You usually saw them on 4wds,just like white or chrome spokes,and to me they are a world apart from the steel ones. I actually hardly cared for them back then because I was so stuck on slots for aluminum wheels. Same goes for Vectors and such. I'd love to find some 8-lug 9.75s for my '72 4wd. Anyway,here they are. What do you think?
