I think that is what they mean Paul. Aluminum centers which are not chrome. They sometimes look painted aluminum color.

The ones with all chrome were the Super Sport mags. The ones with the alimunim centers were called Sport mags, like the ones on the slicks I just sold.

All Cragars had the lug nut pocket area painted aluminum color until the early 80's..Krylon made an exact color match for a while but not sure if it is still available.

Whitetop, do you recognize these wheels. They had a unique Crager center cap on them and I am pretty sure they did not have the &quot;R&quot; on them. They were mostly aluminum. Unfortunately I let them go when I moved to Illinois and am now thinking that might have been a mistake. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img]

Here's a nice early set of GM pattern Cragar's I picked up. 15x10&quot; and 15x6&quot;. No trademark caps.

Cragar, like many wheel/parts companies back then, copied the American Racing five-spoke. Probably what you have there.

Thanks Tony. Are they (or were they since I sold them with the car) worth anything?
