I just got myself another project. This one is a van and I am wanting to go with a 70 street van look. Need the old slot wheels. A pair of 15x10 5 on 5 pattern would be great and a pair of 15x8 as well. Let me know! This thing is going to be killer, side pipes and all!!

American Racing still sells them. They are the Ansen wheels. Check this link.

FYI the new ones do not seem to have the same look as the old ones due to different backspacing. All the pics I have seen show "shallow" slots, not deep set like the old ones. Just trying to let you know if you want the "old school look" like I did the new ones probably won't do it for you. That being said, a set should be easy to find on here. TTT for you.

3qtrtontarrer · 01-26-2006, 08:10 AM

be ware the new ones are different then the old ones.the outer lip is different.if you match a pair of new and old you can see the difference.i looked into them for my 74 z

stueber68 · 01-26-2006, 11:42 AM

Yeah this all of this info is correct. That is why I am trying to find some of the early ones. They also do not offer the 15x10 size. Let me know if you can find some, even if they need some cleaning up.

Solver · 01-26-2006, 10:37 PM

Not for sale but just for clarifacation. These are the old school Ansen slots on my red 72

**ScottH** · 01-26-2006, 11:30 PM

Hey what year van are you gonna put them on?
I just won a 65 G10 on ebay and want to get the same wheels.

Keep on Truckin! Groovy.......

stueber68 · 01-28-2006, 11:13 AM

Solver, that is exactly what I am looking for. Are those 8s or 10s?

Scott the van is a shorty 77 G10 windowless.

ratrod67 · 01-28-2006, 12:23 PM

I have a set. 15X10's and 15X7's. $200+ shipping

Solver · 01-28-2006, 09:40 PM

Stueber68 those are 8" deep.
looks like maybe the guy above has some for you.
Good luck on your quest!

stueber68 · 01-30-2006, 12:38 PM

I've done business with Terry (AKH Wheels) for several years and I highly recommend him. Probably purchased 20 wheels from him and never had a problem. He ain't cheap but he doesn't sell junk.

davidh · 02-06-2006, 04:29 AM

Does anyone have any slots preferably 15X8's in a 6 lug? Need some for my 67'.

stueber68 · 02-24-2006, 07:16 PM

Still Looking! Come On Somebody Has Got Them Laying Around Somewhere!

davidh · 02-24-2006, 08:44 PM

Me, need slots too..

stueber68 · 02-28-2006, 06:59 PM
