Hey guys,
I got these wheels last year and havent really found much info on them. The kid that i got them off of had them on a mustang. He said the former owner before him had them on a supra. They are 3 piece, 18"x9" & 18"x10" & say chevlon racing. He said they were around $3K new. Thanks for any info. Boost if you read this(of course lol) I maybe bringing this to the meet in indy.

If there lightweight there prolly of quality. Even imported wheels or rare wheels still have records of bieng made on the internet.

If you like them what else matters?

Ive seen something that said they were first generation C5's or something, doesnt help the company that makes racing hart wheels has changed it seems.

Im sure theres information out there somewhere, just whether a search engine can find it or not based on keywords.

im not claiming to be a know it all or be able to do anything with the internet, but if its been made there something out there about it. They cant be so rare as there not on the internet.

Those look a lot like the wheels that they had on the Type-A race cars...

I know it's not them, but they look a lot like em, I'd rock em

figure out the length, dia, and thread pitch, and replace all of the bolts... then they'll all look the same. That would seem the easiest thing to do. Buy a few spares too just incase

would like to keep them original if possible. Yah they are a 12 pt metric 8 or 10 mm(cant remember), chrome with a shoulder. Just need 3 of them, so no need to replace them all. I love the rims just hate having 3 allen heads. may have them repowder coated.
