E-T Classic 5 mags - I like them! Pics

[cougs]

I just received these.  I think they look nuts.    Love the forged high polished lips

15x10 with 5.5" BS (0 offset)
15x8 with 4.5" BS (0 offset)

I'll send more pics once I get them mounted.

Nice wheels.  Now I know what design my wheels tried to rip off lol...

  nice wheels

They're all technically a ripoff of the American Racing straight spoke Torq-Thrust wheel (like the VN309).  I hope somebody got fired from American Racing in the 60s when they decided not to get a design patent.  E-T, Fenton, etc. copied them right away.  IMO nothing says Muscle car like a set of Torq-Thrusts.  I considered going with American Racing for a couple minutes but they didn't have the sizes for the rear (except for the Torq-Thrust D but the rounded spoke looks funny to me).  American Racing makes their cast wheels in China but it didn't bother me.

Very Nice! ET makes some sweet looking wheels. I want a set of the LT-III wheels for my next project.

Ah, I see.  Well I could've gone with A-racing but at $300 a wheel or so I wasn't interested...

Love those with the flat center caps.

A timeless wheel for sure.  Just out of curiousity, where are the ET's made?

I just did similar wheels on my car. Eagle Alloys and at 90 bucks a pop I couldn't resist.

They are made in Oakland, CA by "Scott" and his wife Jin.  They aren't cheap but they make some badass stuff

I want to run flat caps.  Need to find a shorter front hub dust cover.  I love flat caps, open lugs, and long wheel studs on the back

OK, I got them mounted yesterday.  Here are some iPhone pics.  I will post better ones this weekend.  I've brought my front down about 1/2" so far and will be bringing it down a bit more.  There is about 1/2" clearance off the leaf spring with the 295s.  Car tracks exceptionally well!

Those wheels and tires look super nice on your Charger! The front does look a little high. Bring it down about another inch and see if it looks right. The pictures of it now make the front look higher than the rear but, it just might be the camera. A slight rake would look really nice to me.

Thanks!  I had to jack up the torsion bars after I did my front disc conversion.  The discs with the -22 offset wheels I had were causing issues.  Now time to get it back down to where it should be.  Just doing it a little at a time to dial it in.  Then off to the alignment shop!

Nice choice on the wheels!

Thanks Chris!  I like the M/Ts!   They ride better than the BFGs I had.

Very Nice!
