Default Cragar SS wheels

Wanting some Cragar SS wheels for my 53 Studebaker.

Looking at a pair that have never been mounted at a reasonable price.

Do they still make Cragars that are NOT unilug? These are obviously not unilug.

I checked on the Summit website, and they are all unilug in 15x6.

We had a customer buy new Cragars a few years ago that were not unilug and I was surprised. I thought they were all unilug too, but these were new wheels he purchased from a local tire dealer. They MAY have been 14", I don't recall for certain.

OK, you made me look. This is a list of the wheels from Cragars web site. They don't list any multi-fit bolt patterns. They are all separate part numbers now... About time, I stopped buying them when they went to multi-fit and the washers caved in at torque spec.
