Where can I find Edelbrock 454 wheels

FUNFER2 · #1 (**permalink**) 08-19-2003, 06:32 AM

I'm looking for Edelbrocks 454 style wheels. I called Edelbrock & they said that Ultra wheels made them. Ultra said they no longer make this style. I want to buy either the 16'-17" x 9"-11" wide.
Any help will be appreciated !
Thanks,
Kevin

I've got Edelbrock 454s on my car. Send Kraig an email at Carcepts kshort@carcepts.com and he should know how to get them.

SSS- what size wheel (width,backspace) and tire size & make is yours ?

The widths are 10" rear and 7" front, both with 3 3/4" backspacing. The tires are Remington (I never heard of them before, you could ask Kraig about that too), 295/50/15 and 235/60/15. The white letters are turned inward at the moment.

This is driving me CRAZY ! hehe!
I have a 8x15 in the rear & wanting to go wider. Lonestar says that's the widest I can go because the frame at the front, of the tire is so close ? I would like to have 10x15. They said the next step would be a 17", then I could go from like 295 - 335 tire size.

I was told Pacific Roadster designed the rear of their car to be wider than the original, which I guess is why they can fit a 10" rim in the back.

Well, I just looked at your cobra make & see it's not a Lonestar. Your wheel well & frame may be different size.

Thanks anyway !
