    I have 32 rims total, but will not be going to bpg. Will have to arrange a meet point some time. Also found a large number of buick rims with a higher chrome center that are all 15s. I have never seen them before so I don't know if people want them. Maybe half an inch taller than a wg center.

    Ryan,
    Can you PM me with your cell number so we can get together Friday?
    Thanks



    shadewolf,

    what are the codes on the taller wheels? Are they for fullsize cars or Skylark/Regal?

    The rims I have are for the skylark/gs, I left the Regal rims alone for now. I think that theres another 30 or so of those rims available if you are interested.

    Do you want the Regal rims? Would prefer to make one trip rather than two.

    I do not want the regal rims. They are incorrect for what I use them for.

    Good rule of thumb is if they say made in Canada they are the tall nose wheels I do not use. They started sometime in 1980 for the 14" wheels.

    Steve why doesnt that work with the 5x5 rally wheels?
     
  18. UNDERDOG350

    UNDERDOG350 350 Buick purestock racer

    5x5 wheels are 2 piece, front half and rear half, welded together and chromed. There is no way to remove the center and install it in a new outer shell as on a A body wheel. There is also no one who will rechrome a 5x5 wheel for a realistic price.

    Are you still making rims and if so can you make 17" rims???

    Just wondering, I'm looking at changing to 17" (17x8 Front, 17x9 Rear) and I'd like to stay "Buick Looking" as much as I could...

    I'm thinking about these American Racing from Year One https://www.yearone.com/Product/1964-72-skylark-gs/bmws1#prettyPhoto...

    As you can see they look close to Buick Rims but not quite...

    Can you do it???

    Thanks

    David
