i like the magnezium centers on budnicks post

Rocket Makes an as cast & polished version of them also...

 

[MalamuteJohn]

Wow! I didn't know Rocket was back in business. Those ribbed 5 spokes in Mr Budnick's post look a lot like Radirs - like em.
Any info on the company? Didnt find anything on their website. Now that "American Racing Equipment" wheels are made in red china, reckon I'll either hafta change my preferred style of wheel or buy used vintage ones. Shoulda kept the set off my GTO apparently...

I got those off of Summit Racing web site... Not all of American Racing wheels are made in China, I couldn't tell you which ones, but I think all the CNC-ed wheels, are done here in the U.S. of A., sometime you got to say "WTF" if you can't find what you want, FOR A REASONABLE PRICE, I also prefer not to buy any foreign crap if I can help it, but sometime it all there is, it's way cheaper for the companies to out source stuff than to pay 3 times the money here & have to charge according for it, then nobody buy them, because like everyone else, we all want the best price we can get... I just read The U.S. of A. now has the highest corporate taxes rate in the world now, too much Govt. regs & taxes, we wonder why so much is out-sourced now, we were only 3rd just a few years ago, I think that is the biggest reason for out-sourcing... PLEASE DON'T TURN THIS INTO A POLITICAL POST

Myself on our 60's Mopars I like the Torque Thrust up front and steelies out back. Gives it that 60's SuperStock look. Ron

Rocket Wheels

I met the guy that bought the brand name 2 years ago at the GoodGuys show here in Del Mar.

I talked to him for about 30 min. They are based out of Tennessee and should be available anywhere.

They deal in both Modern and Classic wheels. I actually have a set of the Booster Chrome on my '09 Challenger.

Perfect choice of wheels. Very nice Satty!

I have some polished aluminum slots on mine, old school. But swapping for some welds. I like the torque thrusts personally, even if people say they are just a trend, doesn't change my opinion.

im with goose slots for sure!Got em on my 69 roadrunner
