Dragway in Melb and Bris seem to do a good job too, and at very reasonable price. See: http://www.dragway.com.au/s_5.asp and DB51. They can also be done with black (or any colour) centres.

Hi Greg
I persume your Harrison has the 9" rear and not the Skyline diff.
I looked at Vintage wheels and the rear wheel backspace would not work for me with the independant rear. They are very nice wheels.

The Australian Dragway wheels I have seen have quite pronounced milling marks in the centre which for the price I find rather interesting.

I have a quote from PS Engineering (LA California) for a set of Halibrands (used on original superformance cars) around US $1800 depending on final requirements. Also a quote for some Foose Ascot wheels (2piece custom ) at US $2100. Just got to go Innie meanie minnie moe to make my mind up.

When selecting wheels for a Harrison with a Skyline rear, the brake caliper sticks out past the face of the hub. This makes selection for wheels for the rear not that straightforward.
