any new info on repro 15x8 SSII chrome wheels?

I know they're currently off the table, I think Vintiques is only actively offering 15x10 size.


Just thought I'd throw the question out for anyone who might have an inside track.


I ended up going with the flat-gray finish Torq Thrust D's last year when finishing up the chassis rebuild on my '72 ragtop, which are a great alternative for a period performance look without appearing over-used. Maybe by the time I wear my first set of Cobras out they'll come back around!

That's bizarre -- I have periodically checked their site over the last six months or so to see whether they'd be up and hadn't seen them to date. I also emailed them about 3 months ago to inquire with no response.


will have to call them and confirm - if they really are available may have to sneak a set into my garage


thanks for the find!

i couldn't find it on their website but I was looking on my phone so that may have been the problem. I ended up finding a previous post I made on Facebook about them where I had embedded the link and it still worked.

Called Wheel Vintiques today - SSII chrome wheels not available essentially in any size, even though currently (re)listed in their online catalog. Am told they don't have the required center sections to make them, no anticipation of new stock anytime soon.
