Someone educate me on them. There were 2 Different Versions of the wheel? One for street and one for Drag racing?
 
Street tricks were heavy, chome, and have almost nothing in common with the original Supertrick racing wheel. The racing wheels were spun aluminum, 3-pieces bolted together, prone to cracking, have no safety beads for tires, and were the 1st true super light-weight dragracing wheel.
 
I have a pair that I picked up in the Seventies, 3-1/2" wide Cragar "Super-Trick". They are designed for Drag Racing, Straight line racing. No turns at over 10mph.
They are brushed aluminum, although some people buffed them to a mirror finish per their taste. They don't take kindly to potholes and are not for the street.
They came in various offsets and widths and are still out there! I bought them when I was a "wee lad" because I thought they were cool. Now, just collecting dust.
They look nice on period correct race cars, and save alot of weight.
