Re: Show me your aftermarket wheels

I went with Vision 55 Rally 17x8 with rally center caps, which seemed a little too sporty. Going for the hub cap look, I got some Vision 2531V police center caps and painted them white with bowtie logos.

I bought those wheels off eBay. They were in fairly rough shape cosmetically, but they aren't bent or warped.

I was able to machine them and modify them slightly from the original look.
The fins extended all the way down to the lugs and the hole pattern wasn't symmetric with the fins.

I machined off about 1/16" to smooth up the lug hole area and I radiused the ends of the fins to blend into the center.
Polishing was just too labor intensive, so I had them powder coated.

There were no center caps and I could not find any that would fit. So I machined some from 4" billet aluminum bar.
There just aren't many choices nowadays for 6 lug wheels.

Great work on those wheels!
I'm a fan of turbines too! Especially on 2nd gen F-bodys.

On my Burban it depends on the weather which wheels I'm running.

Thanks! I figured a GM rally would be what someone in '67 might borrow from the family Chevelle for their "farm rod". I'd also been OK with a set of aluminum slots like 72c20customcamper or Torq-thrusts in gray - something from the period.

A1971Blazer's work on those turbine wheels was awesome. And the wheels on wpsharpshooter's red '68 go really well with the fit & finish. Good stuff - love the pics and the options shown.

To IT Cowboy, I say "run what you like".

Don't have too many good side profile pics but slot mags got my vote.

Re: Show me your aftermarket wheels

Posted ‘cause nobody has shown any Outlaw 2’s.
Tires are all the same but I used a deeper offset to make the rears look wider.😎
