Anyone recognise these wheels?

[Coopfan]

Just wondering does anyone recognise these 14" wheel that I have fitted on my car. PO said they were rare and I've as yet never seen them anywhere. Closest I've seen is on Ford Capri Lasers from the 80's in Europe but they arent the same as these.

Yeah, they are American Racings, can't recall the name off-hand, but it'll come to me. Not terribly common these days, but I don't know that I would call them rare.

Thanks if you remember the name let me know, just out of interest

Thanks for you info Arne. I tracked them down as Spectres, cheers for your help

Yup, that's the name. Do all four look that good?

[Coopfan]

I have a set of these to go on my 72...yours look brand new...mine will need a lot of elbow grease...

from what i understand they were a dealer option?..may be wrong..the rare ones are the stag 14-8 btw..had a set on my last z...ruff as hell..sold for 1k extra with sale of car

I don't know if dealer option or aftermarket....many dealers had aftermarket parts from local distributors on show room floors as a way to make extra money...I spent a few hours cleaning mine up, next step will be to repaint them and but a clear coat on the aluminum...

They look sharp! Not my particular style, but I can definitely respect them on a Z car. Like them on the green.

I have a set of these in 1/4"... No really. In my trophy cabinet I have an ancient Hotwheels Z on a flatbed and those wheels are what Hotwheels put on the car!
