    Does anyone polish wheels?

    I don't see any reason why you need to go out of state, you should have polishers around you unless you're out in the boonies. If you have trouble finding a "polisher" then just ask chrome shops, they often have an outside polisher.

    WANTED VINTAGE WHEEL WORKS 15X8 VN45

    No, those ET's have painted spokes, not near the same. The TToriginals might have paint. I kind of don't think they have paint. but they are very rough surface, flat color-as cast I suppose.

    WANTED VINTAGE WHEEL WORKS 15X8 VN45

    I have Torq Thrust originals, old ones that are USA made and are wonderful EXCEPT 15x7 is the widest with a back space that will fit my car. If I go to the TT orig 8.5" the back spacing would require a shortened rear end. The Vintage wheels have the necessary 4.5" back space in a 8" wheel which...

    Recommendations for Red Line Radials

    I would drive the car with the poly glass first, then decide if I didn't like them. I've back to backed cars with bias-radial and didn't find that much difference. But I just drive on decent highways and streets

    Dodge pick up with 5 on 4.5" bolt pattern? That doesn't seem right I stand corrected. I looked it up and 1/2 ton Dodges did have 5 on 4.5"

    Where to get good 1/2 20 wheel studs and lug nuts

    .005 is a little on the small end .012 is a good figure, roughly. The problem is you have to make everything work, knurl dia, shoulder ht, length of threads. You can't always find the exact right ones. It's common to get everything as needed but have the knurl too large so it's time to drill out...
