Default Wheel Vintiques steel wheels

I've tried to find a clean set of 15 x 6 steel wheels for my 1969 Biscayne and have just about given up finding a mint matching set. Has anyone used the Wheel Vintiques repop wheels? Quality OK and do they look correct? Windows look original? I'm not picky about codes.

I purchased a set of 15x6 for my '63 Ford and was very happy with them. Mine came from Summit also. They didn't even charge for shipping, seems like there was a $12 handling fee for the four wheels.

I have a custom ordered (direct) set of 15X8 (5" backspace) on the back of my Chevelle. Sorry I don't have any close-ups. Great people to deal with, very satisfied with the quality of their product.

I have them on my black car and the quality is VG, made in California. My redlines are mounted on them and so are my Hurst cheater slicks. The hole for the hub is larger, maybe because they also fit Ford's. Mine also came from Summit, and there in town [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]
