Default 15x4 Rocket wheel

I got a single 15x4 Rocket wheel in the trunk of a long stored 68 Camaro race car. In my decades of buying old wheels, I have never seen one. This has the normal chrome issues that a Cragar would have. When were these discontinued and does anyone have a single they would part with ? I asked the seller what happened to the other and he said we threw the other one away since we were using this one as a spare.

I'll get some pictures to post.
Thanks !
Dave

I know that they still make a 15x4 in the "Fuel" series. I checked completed auctions and didn't see anything. Do you recall what they were actually selling for ?

Have you tried this company?

If I remember correctly the wheels were the same as a Cragar SS wheel in price based on condition.

Good luck in your search.
