Looking for Vintage Racing Wheel
 
I'm looking for a vintage racing wheel that I used to own, but never knew the name of them. I can only describe them as I don't have any pics of them. If anyone has a name or an idea in regards to what I'm talking about please help.

Description:

The outer wheel was chrome steel and the centers were magnesium I think with oval slots in them. The oval slot insides were black. Some I have asked in the past told me they were Chrysler or Ford racing rims. I know that isn't much info, but any feedback would be much appreciated.


Thanks
Manny

Thanks everyone. Those are the wheels. Now I just need to find the 15x4s I gave away for nothing back in the early 90's. Who knew the nostalgia craz would take off.

Most people if they ran these Motor Wheel Spyders on the rear ran the Flys on the front. They were a five spoke and very light.

Back in the days I was told that Fly's did not like much lateral stress.

Eddie Schartman had a set on his 1970 Boss 429 Cougar Pro Stocker - very pretty wheel!
