January 29, 201015 yr comment_307816 Now if I could get someone to make some 18" American Racing 200S in the correct offset for my GTO for a reasonable price.........Not sure what the correct offset for a GTO is, but American Racing does sell reproductions of the 200S. They show up to 17" on their website, but it also shows a special order form, so you may be able to contact them and see if they have the size and offset you need.http://www.americanracing.com/browse_vintage.asp-Mike Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34546-per-spec-mag-16x7-group-buy-idea/?&page=2#findComment-307816 Share on other sites More sharing options...
January 29, 201015 yr comment_307820 I've already contacted them. They don't make what I'm looking for. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34546-per-spec-mag-16x7-group-buy-idea/?&page=2#findComment-307820 Share on other sites More sharing options...
January 29, 201015 yr comment_307838 Just got off the phone with vto and confirmed the wheel will be a "single cast aluminum" piece and comes with Lugs and choice center caps. Though I can design my own center cap disign which I just may do Taking a rim off Ruby Z to read any details or specs on the back. That looks freakin Awesome ! Will load up my new rim pics tommorow. ~Z~ What the Primer or the Wheels..., I think it was the size of the tires on the wheels (fairly skinny). I like the 5 slots (kinda done to death though on Z's) like the Shelby Cal 500's, I'd love to find a set of American Racing Libre's (woah!) --Then again I always was a fan of The Dukes of Hazzard... what do you think.. "The General Zee". I have this one I need 3 more... <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/42150949@N07/4312569053/" title="100_2016 by Pleiner87, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4039/4312569053_6ac863eac1.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="100_2016" /></a> And here it is now next to my dads blue 260 with the Shelby Cal 500's... <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/42150949@N07/4312543888/" title="100_1989 by Pleiner87, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4031/4312543888_745e5f3223.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="100_1989" /></a> Edited January 29, 201015 yr by Pleiner87 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34546-per-spec-mag-16x7-group-buy-idea/?&page=2#findComment-307838 Share on other sites More sharing options...
January 29, 201015 yr Author comment_307841 your crazy P, the primer OFcourse ! My mechanic had 3 of those Shelby 500's on his Z fore he sold it. Someone stole the 4th wheel out his dads shop in Freseno, CA. They are slightly different than the AR Vector wheels on the General Lee. General Zee for sure . I have a spare unmarked Vector and laid it next to the Shelby's before that Z was sold and you can see they differ. Go to Zparts.com, a shop in Oregon or Washington state, they have 3 of those Vetors for you Edited January 29, 201015 yr by WingZr0 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34546-per-spec-mag-16x7-group-buy-idea/?&page=2#findComment-307841 Share on other sites More sharing options...
January 29, 201015 yr Author comment_307844 By the way, what is it with these unmarked wheels? Jacked up Ruby and took off a Per-Spec and there was nothing on it. Not even the rim size.

Not even the rim size.Not at all unusual for US-made mags in the early '70s. Some big name companies would cast their name in the back (American Racing, Shelby, US Mag, etc.), but the smaller companies almost never did. And there were no requirements for size, specs or any of those kind of markings in the USA back then.

January 29, 201015 yr comment_307866 It's probably worth mentioning here that - like many of these wheel styles back in those days - this style was made by more than one company. Same with Libres, turbines, slots, etc. As evidence, we've seen this style with different lip shapes, and both screw-on and push-in caps.So the fact that yours have no casting marks in the back while Goose's actually say 'P/S' tells me that yours are P/S clones.FWIW...

January 29, 201015 yr Author comment_307892 GOOSE- where was your markings stamped at? ARNE- don't doubt that is true at all, that said I don't see a design difference compared to the othere rims. Is there one i'm not seeing? IF not i'll use mine for the mold, if there is a difference i'll find a genuin PS when the time comes.

January 30, 201015 yr comment_307903 GOOSE- where was your markings stamped at? On the back side on the main wheel section (not on the spokes or the center seating surface or on the lip). I just checked and I only have that cropped photo - not the uncropped original. And, those mags were sold so I can't go look. I've attached the "for sale" photo that shows all 4 of the mags and the center caps FWIW.
