What do you think of these wheels?

[Pbum5]

Forgive the crude Photoshop, but you get the idea. I have Cragar 14x7 (back wheel in pic) and am looking to upgrade to 16” or 17” wheels.

I know Torq Thrust’s look great on stangs but I am just looking at other options.

These are Centerline “SAHARA” wheels.

Centerline are selling them direct at a discounted price with just about ANY backspacing for under $200 each.

i lkie them i think it would good lowered a little with the 17's

 

[Max Power]

I like em.

 

[HuKares]

Those were my second choice. I went with Mojave in 17's instead. Sorry I don't have any pictures right now besides my little sig. pic.

They look good!

 

[grego37]

[Gud T.B. Blown]

Dude, I still like the cragar knock offs. How much you want for them after you replace em?

For You, today, ‘cause I like your face…. I’ll cut you deal. Jk.

Seriously if you do want them I’ll give you a good deal. Not sure how soon I am changing rims, but we can talk about it.

hey pbum
Did you know they make craigars in a 17. They look alot better than the rn 15s.(not that i don't like the rn 15s). Plus I havn't seen anyone with 17in craigars yet.
btw i do like those wheels. they would look good in 17s on a dropped fb.

Doesn't American Racing make some pretty nice looking 5 spokes (similar to the torque thrust)?

I'll have to check out my digital pix at home, I might even have a picture of a 67 FB GTA with them on it.

65driver289 –
Yeah, I have seen that, It also looks like they make a thinner 5 spoke mag to look like a Torq Thrust II.

- Yeah, I think you are talking about the Torq Thrust II. I like those a lot. Just see them everywhere.

I might go that route, but wanted to look at other wheels before making a decision.

funny thing, I bought the same "sahara" rims for my 66 a few months back. quality for the finish is not a good as I would expect but other than that they look good on the car... I just need rubber for them. I have my stang on jacks putting new suspension and por-15 the and rear wheel wells. so I slide them on and gaze at them for a while then put them back in the box LOL.
