M/T-RADER rims wanted
 
Hello,
Does anyone have a pair of M/T-RADER front rims they would sell.
Chevy bolt pattern, aluminum centers with chrome outer rim.
I think they would be 15x4 or 5.
They look kind of like the old HURST mags I've seen.
I will try to post a picture tomorrow night.

Thanks in advance for any help.
Eric

That is close, but the the ones I am looking for are 2 piece rims. The center hub is round and the spokes are smoother.
I will post a picture tonight.
Thanks,
Eric

Those are different also, but thanks for trying. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

The ones I need are like the ones on the 1966 Batmobile without the "BAT" centercap.
Thanks again,
Eric

Eric,
Those are real Raders, not M/Ts. They have a single center raised ridge on each spoke. The M/Ts have 3 raised ridges (look at mine). Whichever ones you really want, I advise you to stay far away from ones with rusty chrome rims. Since the centers are aluminum, the only restoration path would be to separate each wheel, then rechrome the rims, then reunite the centers to the rims (with precision). I can only imagine all that would be over $200 per wheel.
I've seen nos ones go for around $200 ea, which in the equation, is really not too bad.

The old days of picking up a set of really good ones for $75. are gone. (sad to say)
