I would like to put a set of these wheels (and tires) on a Shelby Cobra Slabside Tribute car. Please see photos of the wheels and tires for the 2012 50th Anniversary Edition Shelby Cobra Slabside below. Thanks in advance for your help and consideration -- Sincerely, David

David for sure
Think ERA made up sets too.
Dayton may as well

I'm not sure why but every current wire wheel knock off that I've seen isn't a very good copy of the original ones. The lettering and arrow are different and I don't know why current ones can't be like originals. It's the kind of thing that bugs me though!
These were a PAIN to find!

The originals are a nice part.
I agree repop are not too desirable

Original set of 15x6 70 spoke wheels
 
I have a set of original wheels in good shape. My v8 Healey would not know the difference between these and repops. They are silver powder coated.
