Torq Thrust D Wheels - Now Made in USA!

[33 IMP]

I however, do love the wheels. Unfortunately, we cannot control where everything is made these day. I am also looking for a used set of TTD's or S200's for my Roached Runner. They just always come in such unusable back spacing for my vehicles.

Agree with that. My 15x10s were bought almost new, off a C10 pickup. They had too much
backspace to use them where I wanted, and too little to use anywhere else.
I've got some 15x8 1/2 daisies, and some 15x8 ansen 5 spokes than can be used on a car with a full round wheelwell opening..... and not much else. The old one piece wheels didn't have enough b.s, the new two piece versions do, but man, have you priced the new daisies?!?

@junior340, those look excellent. Are they painted? If so, what paint did you use?
I've got six daisies and a pair of ansen five spokes that need some restoration, but I don't think I want to polish the rim part. I'm thinking of blast/paint.

I painted the spokes aluminum paint since they were dingy looking but didn't want polish look. Rim part is raw, scotch bright every once in a while.
Thank you

I got these 26 years ago. Needed them to
set the ride height on the CAD model. Got
the measurements required, then reboxed and stored until assembly time.
Made in the USA....


Made in the USA is a disappearing art.

great news if true. but there was a city named USA in in good ol ching-ching. where many products are made and exported. I do hope this is true, and these wheels are indeed made in the one and only and Correct USA.

Actually, the city of Usa is in Japan. And yup, they tried that in the '80s sometime. Didn't work, of course!
