I have a set of track wheels made from a steelie center welded to a wheel "blank" hoop that is 15X7.
I need at least one more set. However when I search I can find lots of other hoops (like 8 in wide) but none 15X7. Anyone know where to find some so I can make some more track wheels? Then I would just raid a VW junkyard for some old steelies to cut the centers from. |

QUOTE Hi Mike: We do offer 15x7 DOT rim shells for sale. Price would be $45, plus UPS shipping. To purchase, call us at 888-888-7199. See above, I had contacted Bassett Racing Wheels when I was looking to do the 944 steelies. Center ID was 12.625" (I think, I'd call to verify) , many wheels used a 13.25" center section like Fords, Porsche and some Chevys. |
