Anyone make aluminum steelies?

[rohrt]

Kind of a oxymoron but was wondering if anyone make aluminum rims that could pass as old steelies rims with the bosses for a hub cap? In different widths?

Wheel vintiques does a billet steelie.....I think they can go to 20" and as wide as 10"

There was a Burgandy 66 Chevelle in the mags a while back that had some sort of billet wheel with a stock looking 66 cap.

I cannot remember the guys name. It seems like the Chevelle had a 302 in it.


Wheel Vintiques does have a larger diameter steel wheel like this though.
I just bought a set of their 17" x 8" steel rallies. I really like the look, but there are pretty hefty at 35# each.

Good luck.

George Poteet Legens Hot Rods built that car. The wheels were custom cut.

Jay Leno had some made for his Toronado; they probably cost a million dollars, but hey, he can afford it. They were of course solid billet blocks...
