Hello,

Planning on upgrading my birds shoes to 15" to accommodate
bigger disc brakes in the near future- any recommendations on which manufacturers
version to purchase quality-wise (American Racing or Wheel Vintiques). Also, any thoughts on
where to purchase?

Thanks,

Jack

Really cant believe that their is a difference in the wheel's. What did you buy from them Dmartin. The old chrome reverse where bad about rusting in the day. So that is the reason I went with Aluminum Wheel's Et back then. No rust. Only the lug's and spacer's had some issues. Don't think any thing is chromed as well as back in the 60 and 70's.

Yeah that’s what I mean companies can’t use a lot of the old school chemicals like back in the day cause of environmental wack jobs and it usually is not very thick either

Yep this is true. Some part's on my car need refreshed so going to try the new chrome paint I see out. Like my shift handle. Chrome done a second time on things would surely remove the Hurst on the handle.
