    Halibrand Wheels

    Has anyone tried contacting Halibrand for early 911 fitments. Looks like a set of new 15x7s start at $1360

    Some Kidneybean 6's might look cool on an early car.

    The Five spoke is almost a dead ringer for the American Mag. Check out the back spacing and size choices. It dose not give any weights. A new set for less than $900.00.

    Maximum backspacing they say they can do on a 15x7 is 4.25"

    what about the 6 inch, I don't know the specs but can they be made similar to a deep 6 or standard fuch? The more technical legends on this board may be able to tell me!!!
