Re: wheels

Basic chrome sawblade wheel. (dont know brand name) Popular in the 80s. Not really worth anything now. Most people would rather have stock wheels vs those.

Re: wheels

Regardless of whether you get different rims or not. Keep the rallies. It is always nice to have them to fall back on.

Re: wheels

They are called modulare wheels and they are made by a couple of different companies like Cragar and American Racing IIRC.

Re: wheels

For about 10 years 20-30 years ago every wheel maker made some flavor of directional but not really directional "sawblades". All those cheap chrome wheels are high maintenance, the chrome must be kept pretty much spotless clean or it will pit, flake, and rust. Do yourself a huge favor and keep your rally wheels, a ragged rally looks better than a crusty rusty "sawblade"!
