Cars with Cragars
 
I am a firm believer that Cragars look good on everything. Just put them on the z last night https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...3384-image.jpg

That look's good.

Looks good, and I like that '74 Z in the background too.

Those '74 stripes with the Z28 integrated with the stripes always looked great to me.

Serious considering these for my Chevelle, but I'm having a hard time deciding on sizes and whether to buy 4 of the same size or buy 2 7&quot; and 2 8&quot;. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

I love the look of Cragars. But... I don't like the unilug wheels.

When I was looking for some for my car, I couldn't find any of the early ones.

Re: Cars with Cragars
 
These are not unilug, Cragar makes 5 on 4 3/4 gm bolt pattern and they use the conical ET style lug nut. The coolest thing I saw when I was mounting them yesterday was the stamping &quot;MADE IN USA&quot; these are all 4 15x7

Here is a picture of the lug nuts that I used. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...03-lug_nut.jpg

Love the color. I was toying with new Cragars or Vintage Wheel Works V40's and went with the V40's Maybe some day I can afford another new set of rims. Love that car Dan. The cragars give the silver a brighter look.

Was never big on the Cragars growing up but a few years back I started having interest in them. Once I seen the gentlemen's one owner orange L78 69 Chevelle on another site I was sold on them. This car is just awesome. I could stare at this thing for hours. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...3417-image.jpg

Thanks Dan. While I do like the look of my rims, the Cragars 'ARE' by far the best looking for that old school look. For a true race car look, Cragars in the front and black steelies on the rear. My first Camaro was a 10 10 SS350 with Cragars in 74, which I have pictures of but unfortunately I never got side pics of that car showing the wheels. Are your Cragars vintage or new? They do look great with that silver.

Re: Cars with Cragars
 
The Cragars are the new ones from jegs they are direct bolt and not the unilug.

CC Rider 07-03-2014 02:51 AM

Re: Cars with Cragars
 
Cragar 612P SS is direct bolt.

Cragar 612G has a gray center.

What a paint job. Great looking car. I'm sure this is an optical illusion but it looks like a dent on the passenger fender just behind the headlight door in the top pic.

That's a clean looking wheel. I wrote the number down in my files for reference.

This is one of my favorite camaros. I think I first saw it in hot rod around 1979. This is a timeless look. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...3454-image.jpg

The Cragar S/S's are nice but how about a set of Fan Star's!

The Z-28 I got them on, blasted, and the Trans Am they're on now!
