So I dig the wheels on this Corvair. I have seen close up pictures of them and they have American Racing center caps, however, I cannot find any info on them. The owner doesn’t have any info on them either. I don’t think they are AR wheels, they look like circle track wheels to me. Anyone have an idea? It’s driving me nuts.

I think they are American racing, but I'm almost 100% sure that they're truck wheels with that offset. They remind me of the ss454 wheels, though I know well and good they're not.

so, I started with slot mags, and got to wolfrace slots. Made for damn near everything. Then i saw a pic with a set tagged wolfrace american racing. So i went to ar slot magsI am like 85% certain what's on that guys car is a 90ish 5 bolt truck wheel. I don't think it's either of these, but no car wheel has had that kind of dish.

Are they chromed steel or polished aluminum?

I’m almost 100% sure they are chromed Steel, they definitely aren’t slot mags.

Too bad you can’t look through them.

Basset inertia wheels, or possibly a pacer brand

They almost look like a factory truck wheel, like off a Ranger or S10

That's what I keep thinking.

Well as deep as they are, they’re not on spacers, so they would have to be off the S-Series trucks being that they are 5 by 4.75 bolt pattern.
