Custom SSII Oldsmobile Rally wheels
Well.....somebody with deep pockets finally brought my dream to fruition. Granted, I had NOTHING to do with Foose designing and building his "Four42" version of the SSII Olds Rally wheel. My billet version of the SSIII's were designed and one set was built. I had the SSII's designed, but never built. Personally, I like the proportions of my design better, but Chip made his "forging blank friendly", which limited the end result, yet kept it more affordable. However, it still looks pretty sweet! I tried to attach a picture of the Overhaulin' car with his finished wheels on it. In the top right corner of the picture are two small wheels. Foose on the left and my design is on the right! Here's the skinny on his wheels from MY local MHT wheel dealer. Your local dealer will probably have different numbers and may even have more info:
Available in 17x8, 18x8, 20x8.5, & 20x9 as a polished alum wheel.
For $110 extra per wheel you can have them chrome plated.
It's a two piece wheel, with forged centers welded into existing/supplied rims.
There is a 3 week delivery time on a set and they're all built as custom sets (nothing on the shelf).
17" polished alum is $700 per wheel ($810 for chrome)
18" polished alum I'm assuming are about $800 per wheel (I didn't get the specific price)
20" polished alum is $915 per wheel ($1020 for chrome).
Lifetime warranty on structure defects.
1 year warranty on finish.
So....for $3200-ish, you can have a full set of them in polished aluminum. Of course, I'm certain that if you want them painted to match your car, it is an extra cost, but we didn't even go there. I would guess that there are a lot of optional things they can do for the right amount of money. Let me reiterate....I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DESIGN, MANUFACTURING, OR SELLING OF THESE WHEELS. I just happen to be watching "Overhaulin' " last night, saw this particular episode, and about messed in my pants! I just wanted to share it with everyone.
Congrats to FOOSE for finally taking a step forward for the Olds community!
