those are sweet!

Those would look good sprayed all silver instead of that black and silver.

$500 more and you find a set of real ones that only weigh 12lbs each instead of 17.5lbs

yeah, one color or the other. they'd look wicked with full polish.

do they make them in 7"a d 8" deep dish?

5.5" wide w/Et35mm which is great for a bug......

They weight in at 17lbs not light , they are cast alum., so they could be made into R spec type wheels. oh they are 1k ,
I sold real ones for 1200.00

Did you always want Gasburners?

yes, yes

but first I'd like to get the correct car to put them on

Always liked these wheels.

Sold a nice set for $400 years ago...

...but I still have a never-mounted one for a lightweight spare!

I think ET35mm is ok.

isn't the 5bolt 5.5x14 inch fuch 35mm?

I thought the real 7R wheels were 37mm (or is it 39)?

Aaron,

you could be right. I'm not using any reference and just going from memory.

(all the numbers are starting to sound familiar now)

to end all confusion

i like the look of the painted gasburners, but i dont want a gas burner that isnt magnesium, ill take fuchs

my memory does in fact suck I see.
so 49mm it is...

do you also have the 14inch numbers?
I remember that the 14 is very close to the 7R (of course you may not want to trust what I remember)

i only know what is on that chart

I know were 2 complete sets of Gas burners are located. One set is fully restored, the other set needs restoration. Let me know if you are insterested. They are located in the SF bay area.

I have nothing to add other than....

Hey B long time no see...
