UPDATE:
THEY DISCONTINUED THE FRONT WHEELS ON ME!!!
So I had to cancel the order! I'm so pissed!
Mine were discontinued as soon as I got them and dogs ruined them shortly thereafter. Sad because thats one general design which spans the gap between HAMB friendly and muscle. Which I found out after ordering them just because the spokes look like my hood. It was gonna be Cragar S/S before finding Radirs.

The remaining choices left for a gasser Chevelle look are cliche... five spokes or slots. Theres always a fly in the dadgum ointment, ain't there?:rolleyes:

Dazzlers lol. Good period suggestion but ack I doubt you'd like em even if something like them were available.

My Radirs are Cragar look alikes and were bought in 2005 from Summit. The avatar pic isn't very telling...

Its a set of 15x8s and by the time you get your ride going, well who knows. I'd probably want Centerline or SST style, or slots, for your theme as second choice. Or any kind of five spoke I suppose, TT or Keystone Klassic.

Lol though... them Bullitt Mustang wheels look good on lots of stuff. Have those on a FWD GTP even. $140 for the set with two good tires.:D

FWIW a thin wall is the only kind of impact socket that will go in there and once corrosion starts in the lug wells even that gets tight. Plus plastic center caps. Which held up better than the wheels so far, 100% outdoors. If thats any consolation.

Bummer things suck and theres always a suitable colloquialism to suit: Its always something. Psyche! Don't count your chickens before they're hatched. You never know whats in the pickle barrel til you get the lid off'n it. For example.

Could be worse, they could have just sent the rears and put zeroes in the shipped column for fronts. What brand / make had you ordered? Somebody else starting to make that style may be the cause to discontinue what you ordered.
