No connection. Looks like a snatch up price.

Not really. If it was 4 wheels it would be ok for $300

Not a wheel expert here. I see a set of these offered on many forum priced at over $1500. Some up to $2500. So why is this not a good price? confused24.gif

Neither good nor bad, they will need refinishing!
I am buying a single wheel from Brad Mayeur in a couple of weeks (to get rid of a Riviera spare that doesn't match), so if I get a chance, I'll weigh in with a picture and a price. My current set is polished so the paint condition doesn't matter as much.

Those that go for $2500 a set are the magnesium 5-lug Gas Burners. Aluminum 4-lug Baby Burners usually go for about $100 a wheel.

cast not forged. i would want confirmation the wheels are straight and tru prior to the purchase. that's for ANY used wheel. steel OR alloy.

To fit hub centric later hubs, what is the part number on the backside of the wheel, or are they all hub centric?
