Cragar Eliminators vs. U.S. Mags Torque Thrust?!!

[cougs]

The Cragar Eliminators are $137 per wheel and the U.S. Mags Torque Thrusts are $130.  The U.S. Mags wheel has a 15x9 option which would be better for the 295/50R15 tire I will be running.  This is for a 68 Charger! 

Please put in your vote above!!

Torq-thrusts IMO, but either wheel in at least 17", again IMO...

[cougs]

The Cragars only come in 15"

If you are going with a 17" wheel, get the torque thrusts. I would imagine they look very nice on a '68 Charger.

They would also be my choice in a 15" wheel. 

[cougs]

I am going with a 15" only.  I like the old school look.  Would go with 60s or 70s vintage if I could find the right offset.

TT's but I am biased.  My wheels were obviously influenced by the TT's.

Go with the Cragar.  The US Magnums seem to be on everything.  Be sure to post pix when you put them on.

[Ghoste]

I like the look of the Cragars.

[Budnicks]

I really like both actually, but the TT seem to be on everything now, a little change up would be nice too... kind of look like the old Kelsey style wheels

[Ghoste]

Yes, exactly.  I like both as well but I've even avoided TT on my own for that reason.  (of course the Magnums on it now aren't overdone at all but whatever  )

[Dino]

Everything has been done over and over.  But who would have the same car with the same wheels as you?  Nobody unless you go to a show or a message board such as this.

Both are very nice, TT is my favorite of the two.

Cougs, you can run a 15x8 easily with a 295.  The questions is how much sidewall bulge you want.

Im a bit biased

Nice...

[Musicman]

Looks aside... a 9" or 10" wheel is better suited to a 295/50/15 tire 

[cougs]

Im a bit biased 

Yup, Chris' wheel choice is definitely influencing my decision!  I'll be ordering today or tomorrow and it's coming own to the U.S. mags wheel, the Cragar or this beauty......

Great choice... good luck

I've now seen the U.S. Mags wheel in person and boy are those spokes shiny.    Why do they find the need to gloss clearcoat everything these days?  The Rocket Strike wheel has a flat clear on it.  Just enough to make it easy to clean but doesn't give it a shine.  If the Rocket Wheels had a deeper barrel I would have ordered it already.

I had no idea choosing new wheels was going to be this tough
