Default Vintage American Racing Magnesium Torque Thrust Ds

This is a REAL and ORIGINAL set of 4 1960s vintage 15 X 8 1/2 inch MAGNESIUM AMERICAN RACING TORQUE THRUST D wheels. They are 4 3/4 inch bolt circle and a back spacing of 4 inches. Each wheel weighs in at only 14 lbs. This wheel WILL fit a Corvette and WILL clear the caliper WITHOUT a spacer. Were freshened up and checked out by a professional wheel shop about 12 years ago. Outer edge is natural the rest has been sprayed in dark gray. Wheels are perfect for a Corvette or Camaro vintage race car. They are being sold with the assumption that they should be used for show only and not to be raced on. These do not come up for sale very often. Tires are Goodyear Eagle RSA P225 70R 15 with about 100 miles on them. $4000.00
I will have these at CORVETTE CARLISLE SPACE K73

Are we sure these are Americans? I have never seen an extra support ridge in the center of all the spokes. Probably a GOOD thing, but never seen that. Also, where are the 5 taped holes for the center caps? Never seen Americans without them. Also don't see any embossed lettering.. Danny

100%! Key word here is MAGNESIUM. There was no lettering on American magnesium wheels. As far as the holes are concerned, two of them were drilled and two were not. I chose to fill rather than drill to match them up.
