    Rechrome Cragar S/S Wheels

    I've always wondered how the aluminum centers were attached to the steel rims. Do they use a bi-metallic transition strip?

    Rechrome Cragar S/S Wheels

    If you want to experiment a bit, you could try dipping in a diluted molasses solution and see how much rust comes off. While not brand new looking, my experiment turned out better than expected: https://www.forbbodiesonly.com/moparforum/threads/rust-removal-by-using-molasses.36965/page-3

    are US Wheel's wheels, actually made here in the US?

    Aluminum aside, and they do make them in aluminum but the majority of US Wheel Corp. wheels seem to be steel, including their street performance series.

    Magnum 500's/Road Wheels won't fit my '66 Coronet wheel hubs??? Help please...

    Apparently not always. https://www.69roadrunner.net/mopar/threads/magnum-500-wheels.4555/ Jegs specs mention the 2.125 center bore (Ford size) which seems too small. https://www.jegs.com/i/Wheel-Vintiques/939/54-5712044/10002/-1

    Magnum 500's/Road Wheels won't fit my '66 Coronet wheel hubs??? Help please...

    They were originally available for Ford, Mopar and AMC. I don't think the original Ford version will fit ours or AMC cars, I don't know if the new versions are different. I know I couldn't put regular ford rims on my road runner.

    Magnum 500's/Road Wheels won't fit my '66 Coronet wheel hubs??? Help please...

    I thought our Mopar center hubs were closer to 2.8 inches, ford was 2 1/8.

    Steel versus Alloy wheels under Pressure

    Not a fair comparison. The steel rim has only four bolt holes, the alloy one is weakened by a fifth hole. :)

    Hi Stingerdorian, :welcome: I hope you get your problem sorted out...

    Big wheels on Bbodies

    Even if you had 500 pound front wheels, wouldn't the bearings still be supporting the weight of the car? The wheels and tires themselves aren't hanging off the bearing, they're sitting on the ground. I can see heavy wheels being harder on the brakes. Of course, there are a lot of large wheel...

    Tires from Summit - Order then take wheels to tire shop?

    Probably not even a robot welder. Just some guy trying to lay down beads on a rotating jig, and doing it too fast to meet a quota.

    Balancing red line bias ply tires

    Lots of people have used antifreeze, it's a cheaper way than using this stuff or tire balancing beads. http://www.deltatiresealant.com/tire_balancers.php https://checkeredflagtirebalancebeads.com/Liquid%20Tire%20Balance/ Not to say that I use it, just that it's a common item.

    Balancing red line bias ply tires

    Are those the lead-free galvanized steel weights? If so, they weigh about 1/3 less than lead so you need more of them.

    RWL or black walls, what do you guys like.......

    On my first car back around 1976 I remember getting white tire crayons from the Sears auto center so I could make my black tires have white lettering. :)
