    As the owner of a former funeral home I have quite a few sets of these but cannot find a way to fit them on my car

I've never been aware of the Gurney wheels failing but haven't a clue if they might be thicker or something else might explain [saving money selling cheap wheels?] I haven't a clue what any of these sold for new either. I've always put Dan Gurney on a pedestal but he, too, had to make a living.
    The fakes are very robust! Almost to a fault. .....cliff
    Lars, thanks for the McAfee link
