    That first pic of the KK "7Kx15" wheel has hubcap bumps, but should`nt. So they did not make a special center for the wide ones. I wonder what the stampings are on the narrower a/s wheels. I`ve asked a couple forums if anyone has bought these wheels for a couple years now....nada. Are they really available, or are they just "taking orders"??

    Jim, Coddington makes a copy of these w/o hubcap “bumps” in various sizes that look stunning. I have a set of his wheels on our Beck GTS/904 replica and they get lots of compliments.

    I just checked their site. The wheels Coddington makes are welded cast aluminum wheels, not really replicas of the originals........and they look different too....especially the centers.
