Bob Cupp's front rims

Ken Haase · 09-07-2015, 09:29 PM

What brand of rims does Bob have on his Chevelle S/S'er? Are they Monocoque's?
And is there a model name within that brand's line? I don't care much for my Weld Pro Stars and I'm looking to change. Thanks.

Thanks for the info, guys.

Mine are on a Chevy, but the rears are 5 X 4.5, so I better double check on the fronts. Single pattern Wilwood brakes, so I'm pretty sure they're 5 X 4.75.

Gary, I'll PM you about pics and price on the 8 hole wheels.

EDIT: My first preference, since this is a '65 Chevelle, would be to find a pair of really nice unpolished Cragar Supertricks. And then, when I can afford them, some 14" wides for the rear. Or, trade for some.
Thanks.
