    image.jpeg image.jpeg Just picked these up, and have never seen this 4 slot style before? They have NOS tires on them?

    I think you mean 14", 5 X 4.75" pattern. The 5 X 4.5" bolt pattern is a Ford bolt pattern. GM is 5 X 4.75", and 5 X 5" (big cars)

    Well,actually there going on 67 dodge coronet post drag car. The tires are NOS Goodyear pie crust cheaters. The rubber seems soft enough. They have been stored indoors. Thanks for the wheel link. I have been asking around and nobody has seen a set like it?

    No worries. I go onto that site from time to time and just look at all the cool stuff I'll never see in person hahahaha. There was so many different and unique designs back then.....let us know what you find out. I've been searching vintage wheels off and on since yesterday and still haven't found anything like what you've got there. Lots of 4 spoke "Daisies" and slots out there, but still haven't found your animal.

    No Motor Wheel Spyders. Was on that site years ago and the they had the very rare 4" front runner Spyders $2,500.00 for the pair! And restored incorrectly. I have and restored a set of the 4" for the Reynolds car. One wheel is signed by Joe Guzzak, which helped with the design of that wheel and I think later became VP of Motor Wheel.

    A year after seeing them on there site we took the car to MCACN and there was a '69 ZL1 Fred Gibb Camaro there with a set on, 4" front runners. Ask the owner "these come out of Wa. State?" Yep. ask if he paid what they were asking...yep!

    Sorry OP don't know what you have. Do you have a full set of 4?

    The guy at the site has a full NOS(!!!!) set of Keystones in 5x5.5 for $1000/set I really want for my F100, but he has them in 15x7 and 15x8. I want 10 wide for the rear. Real cool guy to talk with.

    They are from the 70s. I know, it's actually a really good deal at $250/each. That's less then the new versions cost, but man, I need me some 10" wides with some white letter Pro-Tracs or Mickey T Indy Profiles for cruising around. I have 18" Ridlers for it in the warm weather and 15" whitewalls with Moondiscs in the winter. Would like to mount the Pilot Sport Cups I've got laying in my basement on my 18s for autocrossing and have some old school 15s for everyday driving. Slots, Cragars, Keystones, I can't decide which.
