Hi,

I´m looking to buy a set of new "Kelsey Heyes" wheels, ie. as close replicas as possible. There are different look-a-likes in the market, but I have no clue what would be the best set. I would prefer stainless spokes instead of chromed steel. I know these wheels weren´t original option for my Dodge´s, but still I think they would look cool. Any ideas who sells the best ones?

I contacted one seller from eBay 6-9 months ago, he´s this guy: http://www.cadillacworld.net/Chryslerkelseyhayeswheels.html and http://www.cadillacworld.net/cadillackelseyhayeswheelsforsale.html . At the time shipping was a problem.

Cedric

If you don't mind me asking, about how much did the set run?

I have the ticket some place and the wife is not here to fin it.
So if I remember correctly, I paid 700.00 each for four and 200.00 for the fifth.
These were made for the off set of my hubs, 7" rims and stainless steel spokes.
The dodge matador in there ad under classic chrysler is mine. It now
has all the lower trim on and looks different.

I paid less than that, but I didn't get them in stainless. The receipt shows $1400 shipped.

I think that the parts for every wheel you find will be basically sourced from the same place, but I know for certain that this company laced my wheels.
