I have slotted wheels,Cragars,Dragstars,Torque Thrusts,Magnums,and Rallye wheels on my cars. I want a set of Keystones,and a set of Spyder motor wheels too. I also wish I would have bought a set of Recall wheels when they were being reproduced.

We all have our own tastes in wheels and I’ll never understand constantly railing against some, like the world is supposed to conform to my tastes.
But that being said, I love Magnum wheels but cringe every time I see the “Ford” style Magnums on so many Mopars. Other than I believe it was ‘68s, our Magnums had trim rings!
I know I’m in a minority about that just like Chargervert on his spite for steelies and poverty cap, but nonetheless it bugs me!

They are technically NOT Ford wheels but were made by Motor Wheel company and were available to fit many makes and models so they are just an aftermarket wheel on a Mopar. "The Motor Wheel Corporation originally introduced the Magnum 500 wheel in 1965. While not exclusively made for Ford, they became a popular wheel choice for many Ford models."

Yes it was my car. It was Y2 Yellow when I owned it. I put the Magnum wheels on it.
I recently bought these 15x10 and 15x7 polished aluminum slotted wheels for my 71 Charger R/T.
I have Cragars on my Challenger convertible.

I still like the painted wheel, dog dish hubcap look. But I also like tons of other wheel/tire combos as well. I enjoy the day 2 look with Cragars as well as some 20” wheels with low profile wide tires. To each their own.
I bought this set of Torque thrust II wheels. I haven't decided what they are going on yet.
I have Dynacorn 15 inch Magnum wheels for my Daytona project.
15 inch rallye wheels on several cars.
Any guess as to how much the wheel weighs?
The 15x7 cop car wheels sitting on my shelf each weigh 26+ pounds.
20 inch rallye wheels on my modern Challenger R/T classic
I will have to check the box to see how much they weigh.
