yeah i remember the ads from back in the day, they were shown on a turbo Corvair and are indeed called "Spider".

Hi! the company is Motor Wheel Corporation and that model is the Spider.
Motor Wheel Corp. was in Lansing Michigan and the "Spider" wheel was around from '69--'73.
Aftermarket wheel with a cast aluminum center with a steel outer rim.
Hope this helps.....
Do you have one or a set?? I am trying to complete a set and would appreciate any leads...

Spyder wheel..  premium wheel in the late 60s.    sponsored several drag teams...   I think they do well on eBay...

They used to make them right here in my little old hick hometown.  There were a lot of sets around town at one time but they seem to have all disappeared.  Plant left town too, around 1990.

I think this 72' Satellite has them on it, not the same style but brand. I am working out the details on buying this Mopar.
