I found these online - they look pretty cool & they are cheap - Never heard of the company before so I was wondering about the quality of the wheels

Rocket is a name from the 60's era. I guess somebody is bringing it back. I checked their website and the "Fuel" wheel in gray reminded me of who "Rocket" was. The press release page on their site may help you decide on their wheels.

Thanks for your opinion Vegas69 - but the details make the difference - you should know that, building a pro-touring 69 camaro "that has been done a thousand times" - LOL - I was just wondering if anybody had any experience with this wheel company? - Thanks

Not bashing them...simply stating they aren't re inventing the wheel here. How are they priced compared to the competition mentioned?

Rocket wheels were an inexpensive alternative to Cragars back in the day. No idea how they compare today.

Those look almost exactly like Billet Specialties Daggers:
