I am watching these wheels:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150372039580&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

But I noticed that the seller just bought them at the end of July.

The ads are virtually the same. Do you think it is just a case of him changing his mind?  I hate to be overly cautious, but...

Did that just before posting this thread. We'll see.

Yes,
No idea who made the rims. Could very well be crappy knockoffs. I've used these, I like the solid chrome spoke. That was a Cougar deal so not correct on a Mustang.

Maybe the War Department put the kabosh on the new rims? They are funny that way.

My wife tried to tell me I only think of myself because I have bought 5 pop machines.

When I told her I had spent 200 dollars and sold on for 140 so my total was -$60 so far

on the four machines I still had she made like Emily Latella from SNL and said " oh, well never mind..." LOL!

He bought them and was reselling them because the original listing had the size listed incorrectly. He did change the size in his listing. I passed because a Creighton pointed out I didn't know if they would be good quality or not. They do look like the right "style" to me though.

The punched out spokes are Mustang correct (65-67). Crager made the factory orginals. Biggest problem with the orginals is the center hole is too small to fit on spin balancers. Need to find a tech that owns and can operate a bubble balancer. Not easy these days.

The good thing about Stangs is everything is available. Paying for it is another thing :-)
