Down to 2 wheels in my choice. The second choice of course are the Cragar SS with the 3 prong cap. But my first choice is these but won't be release until April so I have to wait and see. Rocket makes a nice wheel. SS and cast versions. The 15x10 will be released first and then the 15x8 a few weeks later. Rockets are about 200 apiece for the 15x8

I think either set will look really good on a vehicle.

I like the Injector too, but I don't think either set will get you kicked out of a respectable event!

Re: Down to 2 wheels
Those rockets look good!
Summit has a wheel called a "Pulsar" that looks ver ysimilar depending on the depth/offset you want. I was looking at them for my van and pretty much decided to keep my 14x7 slots.
here's a 15x8 pulsar for comparison, PN# SUM-541-5165PS, $135 each
vs rocket:

These defiantely arent the same as the Rockets, but look an awful lot like those Pulsars. http://www.jdwheels.com/halibrand_replica.htm That flat inside looks cool .

Re: Down to 2 wheels
While I agree that the Cragar is a great looking wheel, I've had bad luck with mine. I special ordered a set of 15"X15" Cragars, mounted my Hoosier 33.00X22.50's on them and put them in the basement over the winter. When I put them on the A-100 in the spring I had areas of the wheel that were dull. No pitting or peeling, just dull. Cragar basically would do nothing for me so when the time comes I WON'T be buying Cragars again. I do like the Rocket wheels that you posted pics of. I bet they won't have any 15"X15" in that style. I just may go back to a steel wheel with a dog dish hub cap when the time comes.Just my two cents. Thanks, Larry in East China Mi.

Re: Down to 2 wheels
Hey,
Thanks for the opinions. I'm sold on the Rockets. Rocket tells me they have a few dealers around me and will give me a heads up for when they're shipping. I'll post em when I get em on.

I sure do like them Rockets. Are they Billet Alum.? Also what is the offset on the rear wheels?
Thanks

Re: Down to 2 wheels
I think they're stainless and for 15x8 they have 3.75 backspace which I believe comes out to -19 offset and 4.50 backspace which is 0 offest. They only have 15 x 4.5, 8, and 10 inch rims.
