WingZr0 Posted February 27, 2010 Share #2 Posted February 27, 2010 I've only seen one other Z with those. The only othere similar, might be the same wheel, are on Kharman Ghias. If thats spelled right. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/34891-caroll-shelby-wheels/#findComment-310901 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arne Posted February 27, 2010 Share #3 Posted February 27, 2010 The Talladega was offered by Shelby for 3-4 years starting in 1982. For Z's, it was available in 14x6 only. I can't recall any other Shelby wheel that shared that center cap. I suspect it will be very difficult to find a match for it.

Arne Posted February 28, 2010 Share #6 Posted February 28, 2010 That should be the one. I don't think there was more than one size in that style, but I'd ask to verify the diameter before buying.Good find, Mike.

ajmcforester Posted February 28, 2010 Share #7 Posted February 28, 2010 (edited) I like the rim, I hope you get the ebay ad if it's the right size. Besides email to companies rarely works you got to call them or you get left in the background. In the 90's you would get a response with in two hours now they don't watch the emails Edited February 28, 2010 by ajmcforester Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/34891-caroll-shelby-wheels/#findComment-310951 Share on other sites More sharing options...
