I have a set of the Centerline Auto Drags on my 79 Z28. 15x3.5 on the front 15x8.5 on the rear. I still can't believe the company that took over Centerline didn't want to run them.

Did you leave out the word "not"? As in not going to sell it? BTW what color blue was the car? |

Centerline Auto drag's are what I call day 3, they came out mid 70s and became popular late 70s, they are more 80s style than 70s.

This car is Lemans Blue, ( black HT)which in itself, was not a special paint. The reason it is special paint is that it was ordered with a black vinyl top, which, by default, dictated it should have black D90 striping. The OP wanted white D90, so it then became a special paint car.

From my perspective, I would agree that the CL s are not a day II look. Late 70s ushered in gold Morosos, centerlines, tubbing and braided lines. None of which i would characterize as day II .

Well said I see them as a very late 70's early 80's wheel also. Scott Sullivan Nova which won 79 Street machine Nats top award and Hot Rods car of the year was wearing Cragar Super Tricks. Last edited by whitetop; 12-01-2017 at 05:24 PM. |

For what it's worth, American Racing Outlaw Is are basically the same wheel with a different center cap.

Similar look, but I think the Americans are a heavier 1-pc cast wheel, not a lightweight race wheel like the centerline auto drag.

I do see the differences now. They're a cheaper alternative if you're on a budget (because used Centerlines are like $800, vs. $400 for the ARs), but yeah, the real McCoy is better.
