I may have some...
Sportyworty,
I have four forged 6061 aluminum Trigo spinners if that is what you are looking for. They fit original Cobras as well as replicas; these are not the same as some of the other aftermarket ones you see from Vintage wheel or Superformance. I was going to keep them as spares, but probably don't really need them and starting to get rid of some extra parts I have from my ventures with Cobras. $200 + shipping for these.
Send me your email address through a PM/Private Message on Clubcobra and I'll send you top-view and bottom-view photo of them.

Not to screw up Decooney but why would you want aluminum, you should use SS.

May have to do with cost....$$$$$. I would like stainless but it's not in the budget. But it will happen.

I have both setups and the forged aluminum are a tad shorter at the ears and seem to be about 1/2 the weight of the stainless.

O.K. basically I have no clue here:confused: The ones on the car were stamped halibrand and I thought they were aluminum. I received an email from Kris kinkaid for a set at 800.00 ouch!. The wheels are trigos so I guess Kirkham thought the original spinners would be a nice touch. I am open to suggestions. I have seen spinners with marks on them and flat spots maybe i am just being too fussy here with mine. They did take a bit of a beating though. I would like some good advice here:mad:

If the spinners you have work but have a few dings join the club, you will need to pull the wheels off more than you think to check the pins etc. learn to love them.:D But if you go down the new route pony up and buy SS, harder to dent and should be on a KMP.

How are you guys getting dings in your aluminum spinners - what part is getting digned?
Are yours cast or forged aluminum ??? - just curious, after hearing people have been breaking them, but that is only some of the junk cast ones I've seen. My aluminum ones are Trigo/forged, actually of decent quality, and I have absolutely no dings in them and I've taken my wheels on and off an handful of times with a standard lead hammer. I don't believe I could ding them unless I really tried to.
Maybe all spinners are not created equally :) Hahahahah.

These may be a less expensive alternative to Halibrands. $350 for a set of 4 polished forged aluminium from Bob Lacey (Vintage Wheels). They are gorgeous. the only time I dented one was a cast aluminium and using a dead blow hammer (copper head). Never a scratch with a lead hammer.**)

JCoop,
Those Can Am style knock-off wheels sure are a nice looking alternative to the regular old Halibrand Cobra wheel! Looks very nice. :)

I have a set of nearly new 6061 aluminum Trigo spinners that work for all original pattern wheels, halibrand, pse, trigo etc. They are satin aluminum but will polish very quickly.
$180.00 Visa accepted via paypal.
