2 Attachment(s)
Hey,
I am looking for (2) more ET Kelstars 15x7 wheels so I can get my Shell Valley project on the road. Here are a couple of pictures. Any help is greatly appreciated. Best, Byron |
Give Whiteys wheels a call- 570-584-4874. I got another place , but have to find the number for you
|
|
Thanks Mr. Bruce, Will give them a try.

Any one have any ideas on these? I really need two 15x7's. All help appreciated!!!
Thanks, Byron W. |
did you try E T wheels maybe they have some old stock in the wearhouse??????????
|
Hey rustyBob, yep, I tried them first, a year or so ago, I have 15x8,s on the front and the tires are just outside the flair. With brakes moving the wheels out another inch, would just be too much.
Thank you, Byron |
OK what about contacting Stockton Wheel in Stockton Calif. and ask them to take an inch out of the outer side of the hoop and weld and chrome/polish the wheels.
what size tires are you running on those 8" wheels ?????????? |
hi rustyBob,
I have 2.25-60x15's. The very last, outside tread groove is just even with the outside lip of the flare with the rest or shoulder of the tire outside the well. |
mine are 235/60-15s on a 7 inch rim........a 7 inch rim would help you a lot.
i wuold try Stockton Wheel they could make those rims into 7 inchers........ or you might try replaceing your upper and lower control arms with the one inch narrower arms...........that could get spendy........or do both......... |
I will check with Stocton. The problem I have had is that the wheels are steel rims and aluminum centers. Thank you for the information and I will check them out.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !! |
your back spaceing may be part of the problem also..........
|
rustyBob,
You are correct, the backspacing on the 8inch wheels contributes to the problem a lot. But, if The backspacing was any greater, there would be interference on the inside. My only choice is leave it alone, narrower wheels or have these narrowed. I will let you know what Stockton Wheel says. Thanks, Byron |
rustyBob,
Stocton said they can re-rim the wheels for $145.00 each. I may go that route after the first of the year. Thanks for the advice. Merry Christmas ~!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
cool deal.......glad i could help and $145.00 sounds like the price for a new wheel but it has to be cheaper than 4 new wheels.......
Merry Christmas to you and your family and have a prosporus New Year. |
If you still want kelstar 5 15x7 rims . I have 5 new never mounted 1 used 4 center caps 4 -3 point spinners . 2 in original boxes 3 taken out of boxes to see fit on car . 1 is used with dome center cap but it cleens up well .I bought the extra rims incase 1 got damaged and so i would have spare for my project .I will sell them all together if you are still interested .
