Cragar Super Tricks...where are they?

Malex, Are your front torque thrusts the 15x4-1/2’s they currently offer?

Hi LW. Yes Sir they sure are. Beauty of a rim and under a hundred bucks a piece. About 14 lbs each.
 
Just bought some Cragar Super Trick 15x3.5 front wheels. What are the correct center caps and lug nuts for these? Part Numbers? Pictures?

You can get them from Jegs. I did a couple of screen shots for you.

They make the closed ends as well. You may find caps on ebay.
 
Cranky, that is a real good price, if it's for all four. Malex is looking for 12 inch wide ones but I think the back spacing is wrong for his car. I would like to have those polished center caps.

I believe these are Street Super Tricks on my 18yr old son's daily driver. Bought them at an old Corvette resto shop that went out of business. Have the matching front tires, but they rubbed, so couldn't:t run them. 14" BTW.

The problem with any solid center rim or the brake dust shields sometimes sold aftermarket is the lack of cooling air flow to the brakes. That is why nobody uses them any more unless for show. The main reason that Centerlines and Cragar Super trick's didn't survive past the 70's was Radial tires. Unless the rims were reinforced for the extreme side loads that radials could put on the rims in hard cornering, the rims could/would crack. Centerline put warning stickers on their rims stating that they were not rated for Radials.
 
FYI Super Tricks not for cornering, drag race only. Centerlines were forged could take street use, maybe not road race conditions.
 
Those sure look like centerline autodrags with some later model cragar caps.
I guess you could be right, deffenitly look for markings on them, Centerline from what I remember always said "Centerline" on them, not sure if Cragar did, so Buyer Be Where.
 
Centerline did start stamping their logo on autodrags, but not for the first 20 years or so. I have ( I think) four sets of 'lines and none have a logo.
