They look great, everyone want them, they are expensive. Down side: they do not allow brake cooling because they are drag strip oriented where that is not a concern. I knew a guy with a Toyota pickup all raised up and with them on. He could not understand why his brakes sucked in bumber-to-bumper traffic.
Thats good info thanks for sharring. Function has to come first. I'll keep on lookin
 
Thats what i need!!!
The problem is Centerline went under a few years ago and then came back with a limited selection of wheels including the previously discontinued Convo Pros and Auto Drags but selection is limited and very expensive now plus apparently they are made in China.


A better option might be going with a similar American Racing rim or start looking for used ones that will probably take some work to look good again.

If you look at most wheels there are holes that direct cooling air towards the brakes. Even lowly hubcaps are built that way. Racing wheels are not concerned with that. And MOON hubcaps that cover the whole wheel for aerodynamics? No cooling.

Makes sense

We have ran that style before and they are a decent rim at a reasonable price and still has the classic looks.
 
Years ago there was a "Creeper" Chevy van in the neighborhood that ran the gold plated center Cragar SS/T's. Looked cool but the "Free Candy" painted on the side kept all us kids away.😆Cragar-SST-gold-chrome-wheels-3-hotrod-mags.jpg
