Daisy Mag, 200S, coke bottle wheels

[CH6R8GR]

Hello everyone!

I was browsing around a nearby mopar show and came across a pair of Daisy Mag type wheels. They were marked 14x7 but were actually 15x7s, now I’m on the hunt for some 15x10 to match the pair. Hope everyone is having good luck with their projects. If you have a pair of these available feel free to reach out if you’d be willing to sell them

Bigger versions of those wheels look better, small ones look "Bulky"

They don't look like 15s.......? The ones on the car do. Are you sure about that size....is it stamped on?

 

[1 Wild R/T]

The ones on the car are 17's.... But I agree those do look like 14's...

He could be right....difficult to tell from a photo....but I've seen too often people measuring the size from rim edge to rim edge rather than from one beading surface to the other.

Exactly....

FWIW and just my opinion, I've said this before, in smaller sizes the 200S looks heavy or bulky whereas the Torque Thrust has a good clean look...
But as the wheels get bigger the Torque Thrust starts looking spindly and the proportions of the 200S start looking "Right"....

I’ve been fond of the smaller wheel 15” preferred with the large tire on it similar to trans am racing cars. Measured twice with a buddy just to confirm these are 15 x 7 and I wasn’t just blind with excitement haha. I currently have some vectors for the car 15x7 front & 15x8.5 rears. One picture has the old steelie/tire that came with the car next to the 8.5 vector.

I just laid a tape across the face of my fifteen inch daisies. They measure 16 1/8"
Those look like 14s to me too. As for the width, did you measure inside bead to bead?
Pic is a 15x7 daisy, original one piece.

33 IMP you’re right I just laid it on top of a steel 15 and it’s just an inch smaller. My bad ‍ I’ll hold onto them for now, I do see what you mean about the shape of the daisy stretch with the larger wheel

I wish the guy who owns the car would get some sort of wheels on it... He's running 14x5.5 steel wheels & poverty caps.... Just swap to 15x7 & keep the poverty caps.. 14x5.5 are tiny on the car... A 440-4spd needs more tire to hook...

When I bolted my wheels on his car it completely changed to look of the car, grandpa was gone & the cool kid just rolled up.... His wife & daughters who've always given him crap about the grandpa Coronet were completely blown away....

The one below looks similar to the American Racing Torq Thrust rims.

The one below is the American Racing 200S Like I posted before in smaller sizes the 200S looks heavy or bulky whereas the Torque Thrust has a good clean look...
But as the wheels get bigger the Torque Thrust starts looking spindly and the proportions of the 200S start looking "Right"....

Here's a car with 17" Torque Thrusts.... Not as well proportioned IMO...
