I recall the made-for-street version of those wheels being very, very popular in the 1980s. Anyone remember the chrome aluminum center / steel rim composite Cragar SST wheels?

I've not been following this thread all along, so I am getting caught up. The level of craftsmanship going into this build is simply amazing. I am in awe of the skill level and attention to detail.

Those look great! Price them like the wide oval radials, and you should sell a lot! Love the fact that they are actually H rated and not just for looks.
