Finished my new wheels today.



Verry cool!! I've got my pedrini's detailed the same. I only have the version with the loger spokes... How do yoy deal with the porsche centercaps?? on my car i can't drive those because they hit the dustcaps at front and the drum center nut at rear....

Dennis

Yeah I've got the same problem. Working on a solution right now. I'll probably end up using spacers so that the dust caps don't stick out that far...

When you least expect it, your time will come Grasshopper.
 Cool

Duly noted as such.

I agree with Danny... these are gonna look SO nice on a Cal Looker. Good lookin' wheel, right there.



I got a set of those. I've been holding on to them. Now I've got inspiration to get mine detailed and maybe put em to use

This is the only other picture that exists of the car,...but if it ever makes it to a show, maybe someone with a camera can take a picture.

Very keen observation. The Zwit has Heart Fuchs on it again and the Oval has a few detail changes to it now running the American D's. The oval has more of an "old school" style to it now. I kind of dig it. Nice to mix it up now and then.

   These are CMS  non "erco" but same thing.  6" in rear with MH dot   and 3 1/2"  in front non bubble. with MH 22"  front runners. 

  Zach, hope it might help et's but just put 'em on today no runs on these.

  Thanks everyone for the good words.

Yeah, I think that CMS spun all the wheels for erco except for the bubble fronts. Most people do the big and littles with CMS wheels now. I think it would be cool to get 4.5" and 5.5" with 155s and 185/70. Kinda like deano's blue car back in the 70s. Far out, man!!
