Hurricane Turbine Cyclone Western Wheels Rims

[sprdv1]

It's a 76. You may remember it from the thread I had going last year about the dark brown one. It's has become a secondary hunting/woods truck. Took it to the cabin yesterday actually.

nice... I missed out on the hunting when I was in MS visiting the family

If you are interested, I can help facilitate pick up, etc. Howard in beautiful west Michigan near Grand Rapids

Nice. Even the narrower ones I like. Too bad I don't have an "extra wheel budget" right now.
Still liking some of the modern alternatives of course, but these old ones are still really cool.

Western bullets I had a set.

Keystone Turbos? I have not attempted to clean these up or really inspect them (other than briefly) for markings. Traded the 17's that came on the truck for these. Owner didn't know anything about them.

Anyone confirm or identify? They are growing on me and I think I'd like to track down a 5th if not too cost prohibitive.

It's locked in an enclosed trailer at another location. I'll get a picture of the front rim soon.

OK it seems like I get every couple weeks a Pm / email w. Q.s about vintage rims , proper rim valves and lug nuts !

so I pulled out my fav 4 wheels to help everyone considering going w. old school rims ~

the rims are:

Shelby Slots 15x10

Very early (60s ) Vectors 15x10

E-T IND 15x10

Jackman 15x7

 

[FRANKO289]

The Shelby Slots .....

15x10

they have 3" 7/8 backspacing

4" 1/4 borehole

standard size lug hole and a 1" thick rim hub !

subsequently on a standard 1"1/4 lug stud they wont work and need mending !

A, you can change out all lug studs to 2" long once ( so not recommended ! )

B, have all lug holes professional enlarged to min 9/16" ...

doing so you all you need are:
Mag Wheel Nut w. washers 1/2-20 / 21mm Hex
Shank Diameter: 0.68"
Shank Length: 0.75" - max 1"

 

[FRANKO289]

Very early (60s ) Vectors 15x10 ( in 15x10 super rare )

whats the difference and how can you tell ....

Valve stem location !!!!

 

[FRANKO289]

early Vector / General Lee / Dukes of Hazzard rims


15x10

they have 3" 3/4 backspacing

4" 1/4 borehole

9/16 size lug hole and a 1/2" thick rim hub !

Lug Nuts for them :
Mag Wheel Nut w. washers 1/2-20 / 21mm Hex
Shank Diameter: 0.68"
Shank Length: 0.55"
