They look like smoothed out AR-23s which I like. Unfortunately, I bought some AR-23s with some 275/60-15s and the wheels only have 3 3/4" backspace so there's no way they'll fit. I have determined that I do NOT want to use Torque Thrusts but other wheels can be tough to find. Who makes those and what sizes are they available in?

Those are very cool! They look a lot like my aluminum slotted mags I had when I first bought my charger but a lot more shinny.

The only reason I sold those off is because it would have cost me so much money to have them polished out vs buying my cragers that I made the call to buy the cragers and sell of the alum slotted mag to get the cragers.

I could kick my butt now for letting those go though. Only way at the time to get my cragers though.

sometimes I think i'll never be able to pick which wheels I want.  It's a good thing I don't have to choose for a while!  I like those though.  They are simple, yet tough.  Good choice.

I had set very similar to those back in the 70's on a 69 Sat and then a 73 Sat. I like the aluminum slot mag. Very retro.

Personally, I've always hated slotted wheels but I don't mind those.

They'd look good... on my truck.

I'll bet them suckers are heavy too.

Some local idiot is running a set similar to those on his Road Runner.... with beadlocks!
