Re: these wheels

i think they are champ 500s-champ 500 has holes closer to the hub as seen on the camaro;the gambler is pretty close in style,but holes further away from hub. the centerlines were likely spun aluminum,the gamblers cast aluminum.

Re: these wheels

Sorry about my reply. I as usual entered it without reading the previous one.
I agree it looks like CenterLine.
There is a member selling said wheels currently but I don't recall who.

Re: these wheels

i had to check some pics to be sure they were centerlines I have a P.A.W. catalog from 1982-will have to check that to see if they had these wheels in that catalog and see how expensive they were back then(if PAW sold wheels-have to find that catalog and look...)

Re: these wheels

This picture sucks, but its the only one I could find of my old TA with Champ 500s. I also had them on an Iroc vert I had later, but I can't find any pics.

Re: these wheels

OK, I found my issue.
Inside, the article states that they're Centreline 'Indy 500', which i guess is the same thing as 'Champ 500's.
15x7 fronts, and 15x10 rears.
