Had these to put on my car and after going rear disc they won't fit.:mad: Not bad shape at all and I've got the lugs nuts laying somewhere and if I find them I'll include them.:) You can have the 2 of them and I'll even throw in a 7" wide for a spare if you want it.:D $250 plus shipping. My zip is 76645 if you want to try and get an idea of shipping.

Charlief1,
Are they American Racing? And 8.5 inches?
Thanks,
DGC
 
They are american racing and are 8.5" wide with a 3 & 5/8" back spacing I had 4 at one time and sold 2 so now I've just got these 2 and the 7" wide one left. Here's a pic of all 5 wheels and one with a tape to show the 7" and 8.5" wheels.

Charlief1,

If the 8.5 inch vectors are stock lug size (1/2 inch) and not acorned out, I would be interested.

Thanks,
DGC
 
It doesn't use the acorn style but the old crager style that goes through the wheel with a washer on the nut. Did that make any sense?

Good. Now 1/2 inch or 5/8 inch lug holes?

Charlie,
All you have is the 2, 8.5" and a 7"...3 wheels total? How nice are they? I need to check my backspacing.

Thanks
Coach
 
I had 5 total, 4 8.5 and the 7, and sold 2. A little cleaning and the'd look like new. There are a couple oc very small marks on the rim edges and I have to look for them just to find them. A little steel wool and WD40 and the'd look almost new I believe. The insides do have some corosion but it's surface and I've been tempted to hit it with a whre wheel to clean it up. If you want another 7" I believe ttaowner has some but he may want an arm and a leg for one. Back spacing is 3 & 5/8" and will work with the stock drums. My disc conversion moved the rims so far out that the rim is actually at the edge of the wheel well.:mad:
 
The holes through the wheels for the lugs are just under 3/4". Is that what you're looking for?

Thanks. Would need to weld holes and redrill to fit 1/2 inch wheel studs. Probably ~100.00 per rim. So unless you would consider less $$ I would
not be able to use them. I see Coach is interested, so you will most likely sell them to him. I'll check with my welder to see if he has a different opinion.

You cannot use stock lug nuts on these wheels. The correct mag style lug nut makes up the difference so they can be used without any major work. Just use the correct lug nuts!
 
Hey Charlie,
Seems to me , I got 3 5/8 now, but on an 8 inch rim. I run 275 MT ET's and they are right at the edge now. Do you have a pic with these on your car?
Im going to pop mine off and check the spacing to be sure.

Charlief1,

Shoot me an e-mail to dgcovell@comcast.net and we'll set something up.

Thanks,

I do have 1 pic but it's after I did the disc converson Donnie. The thickness of the rotor really moved the wheels out quite a bit. I'll see about digging it up so you get a better idea.

Also send you an email DGC. Look for Charlie calling.
 
Hey Charlie,
Count me out. My extra $$$ is going to go to Dusty for a new PTC convertor.

Thanks
Donnie
 
That's fine Donnie.:) I should've added the weight of each wheel but didn't think about it. According to my scale they weigh in at 21 lbs each and with packing ect each should be about 24 or so pounds. I pack them so no damage will happen and you should be able to drive a truck over the package and not hurt anything.:D
 
I would also trade 2 front GTA wheels in driver condition at this point so I've got the wheels I need for the car. I'd rather have cash for rent but parts is parts after all.:D

Charles,

Did you get a shipping quote?

Charles,

Check you email.:) Doing a little more leg work here so you can get an idea of shipping if someone's interested. One wheel packed I estimate at 24 labs and a package measuring 18x18x12 and with both wheels I've estimated 18x18x24 and estimated at 48 lbs. My zip is 76654 and as long as it's in the contenetal US you can price it as parcel post through USPS postal calculator. It will depend on whether you want it shipped as 2 packages or 1 big one.:) 2 will cost more but be easier to handle.
