I thought I read a few years back that Centerline shut down. Something about not being able to keep up with environmental standards.
Did someone buy them out and continue manufacturing Centeline wheels? There are lots of new ones for sale in ebay and I have a hard time believing it is all old stock.

Not sure the status of the company- they do still have a website up.
As you mentioned- 15X7 are still available new- but they don't offer the 5" BS. Only the 3.76". You know you want to sell me the ones you have, don't you? LOL |

The frontrunners you have are 15x3.5
The new Centerlines that are being made today are not an exact match of the wheels of the past, so I'd be hitting the swap meets etc to find what you are after.

Yep, I hit all the swaps. And watch ebay. And do a Search All Craiglist across the whole country once a week. Nearly impossible to find them with 5" BS. The 3.5" are all over the place for sale. I'm thinking now that I definitely should've bought that ebay set!

I would keep checking CL ads. I bought a VERY EARLY set of Centerlines for the El Camino, 15 x 8 in the front and 15 x 10 in the rear; all with perfect offset, for $300 locally just a few years ago. They are the ones with two sets of holes that use tapered lugs. They have screw on hubcaps so you can't see the double lug holes. Found them on CL just an hour after they posted. Not a scratch on them. Besides, shipping is a killer on this stuff, unless you are a huge retailer getting a discount.

Thanks Lynn- I was just kidding. I don't need these that bad. I'm sure they look killer on your car. Post up a pic! -Bill
