RE: Custom Wheel Source

["Dennis C." <dennis.2914@xxxxxxxxx>]

I really like the looks of the Crager S/S wheels, I have 215/70R15 on 
the front and 255/60R15 on the rear.

The wheels I have are dual pattern that have a slot not a round hole for 
the studs.  There is a washer with an offset hole that allows for the 
dual pattern.  The lug nut does not seat on the rim like a standard 
lugnut.  The wheel is kept centered by the design of the lugnut.

The wheels work well and have been used for many years.  I have them on 
my old 49 Dodge truck.  I just don't like working on the floor much 
anymore and it takes more work to remove and install the rims.
