    Looking for 17" Buick rally wheels. Does anyone other than Wheel Vintques make them? Would like to buy a set of used billets if anyone has a set.
    Thanks

    The American Racing AR500 is a pretty close match for much less!

    Thanks Joe

    That is a real nice looking wheel. I'll look into the price and let you know if i bought them.

    That IS a nice looking wheel. What kind of comments would be made behind my back if I got a set of 17" for my 65 Sky (given that it's the Chevy version) ? :Do No:

    Around $400 up each I'd rather pay more and get Buick rallies myself . Those look more magnum 500's look me .

    ahhh... if only money grew on trees :beers2: then I'd agree. The ones in the photo above + 2 sets of tires are cheaper than the same 17" Buick wheels alone (no tires).

    If you call them up and tell them you spoke at Pleasanton Ca Goodguys show and they told you 2000 for a set they'd do it . I got mine for $420 each but was about 5 years ago now and are long gone . For them money I'd take 15 " rallies over both :beer

    Just food for thought, that "chevy" style was on my car when I was buying it and I made a deal with the seller to put junk wheels on because I felt the car looked cheapened. Pic1 his way

    I bought American racing AR500 wheels for my car. It fitted perfectly on my 66 gs convertible ( 8" x 17")

    Thanks for the tip about the Pleasonton show. If I can get them for $2000.00 I'll order them tomorrow. Going through a lot of work to build a GSX Stage 1 Clone to correct specs. Probably regret not putting on the Buick wheels.

    Tried the tip on the Pleasonton show for $2,000.00. Wouldn't do it. Not happy!!! Not very willing to deal on a wheel they sell 8 sets a year!!
