Wow, I remember those wheels on my NW Exotics Cobra....in a word...heavy! If it just has a bent rim, the center can be cut out and rewelded into a new rim.

Don't know what your wheel looked like. When Hurricane was in Lee's Summit they had a chrome wheel with a fiberglass? insert held on with a adapter and spinner. I know that Steve Sinnard with the new ownership of Hurricane is not planning to offer them anymore. He dose have some stock that came with the company assets when they purchased. You might give them a try.
