Looks good! Are those the bolt on style wheels with the adapter plates and spinners or are they the true knock offs?

 :) These rims are the 15 inch Halibrands from Hurricane Motorsports. 8 inches wide for front and 10 inches wide for the back. Bolt on rims with paintable center sections. Tire size for the front is 235 60 15 and 295 50 15 for the back.  Rims, Tires and Alignment cost me approx 1,550.  I don't know what size brakes it will clear you will have to ask Mike Arps on that.

Mike, the center threaded part that the wing nut screws to, how does it attach, to rim or axle/spindle?
Are you happy with them?  Price is right!!

 :) The spinner hubs are attached to the rims.  I am very happy with how they look.  If you get these rims remember that two of the spinners are left hand thread and two right hand threads.  The left hand ones go on the passenger side of the car.

Any one know which color would be the closest to the original color to paint the fiberglass inserts?  Mine are a bit scruffy and will need painting but I would prefer the original look.

Also, when guys had real knockoffs on race cars, didn't they paint one thread direction red and the opposite blue so you could tell at a glance?
