Re: [FWDLK] set of wheels and tires



debenson2-
I found some old-stock aftermarket baby moons on ebay last year that fit my factory wheels.  They fit perfect and keep the wheel correct to the car, so I can place the factory wheel covers back on the car if desired.  I found the trim rings at Wheel Vintiques.  They did not have a baby moon that fit.
 
In the past, I have painted my steel wheels with off-the-shelf aerosol engine paint.  It's not as good as powder coating, but held up perfect every time, and one of those was on a daily driver that got 10 more years of service.  This might be an option if your cheap like me.
 
You should be able to find similar baby moons with a little hunting on ebay.

Subject: set of wheels and tires

Hello all I am looking for a new set of wheels and tires for a Plymouth I am working on...I think I am going with the Coker WWW radials 205/75/15 but want a sorta oe factory / Classic hot rod look with the wheels.
Other then Coker who sells wheels that look like the Gennie wheel 15"X6" ?
OR I could just have my old wheels powder coated and add the moon cap and trim rings....
Will the stock wheels take trim rings and baby moon caps?
It seems so far that getting their new wheels powder coated and add the caps and rings from Coker and have them mount and balance is the least amount of trouble and lower cost then redoing and adding the rings and caps to my old wheels.
New wheels must be safer to use too right? 15" wheel but what are the other factors do I need to get a new wheel size bolt size and pattern?
And if I recall we had some sort of discount at Coker? anyone know about this?
Gennie Wheel - Primed or Chrome
