The rear are 15x10 I will be putting 295-50-15 on them and the front are 15x8. 225-60-15. The gentlemans name is Mc wheels that is who made them for me. He is on here. You can message him or call him. He’s a good guy. He did a great job. I did take a little longer then I expected. But good things are hard to wait for. He also gave me all D-rings and new lug nuts to go with them. And for a few buck more I got 4 really nice new trim rings. I’m picking them up from the powder coated Friday they are going to be red same as my car. Any wait!! I’m getting the coated by a local guy here in south jersey. (Just outside of Philadelphia) He gave me a good price to do it. I will let everyone know how they turn out soon. And thank you for asking.
I also built a new 455 that is going in the car in a couple weeks. I bought the valve covers and a carburetor off of two different members on here. This website has help me so much I’ve read it almost every single day. (It’s my new ****)

Looks great! I'm glad you got them!

Here's a thread of mine that McWheels also widened for me. Turned our great. My wait was 3 weeks, but he can get backed up - I think I got lucky.

Well I picked up the rims from the powder coater. He did a great job on them. I’m very happy with the results. I’m ordering the tires for them this week. I some polishing to do on the basils this week and I’m installing them.

  1. The place is called Garden State powder coating In Bellmawr NJ 08031. You can look him up @ gardenstatepowder.com or call him @856-848-6878. Good communication with the owner Keven. I dropped them off on Monday and he told me they would be ready by Friday and they were. It worked out to $85 a rim. I’m guessing that’s a good price. Cheaper than having them professionally painted. And I really didn’t want to rattle Can them. The rims turned out great as you can see and I’m very happy with his work.

Very nice! Did you tell him what color you wanted or did he say here is what you can have? Looks like they match great. I guess what I want to know is it custom colors? My car is blue and as we know there are different shades of blue. I would like to have the wheels powder coated. Can I show him the color and he will match it or is there only one blue available- for example... Thanks for the info, Greg.

I brought a color sample of my car to him. He had the color, but I知 sure they can custom color for you.
