Blast from the Past

I Finally got my 78 camaro with buick 455 on the road and it hammers ,I'd forgot how much bottom end there is in them there engines. Any ways does any one know if they still make steel chrome reverse rims? they were quite popular 30 yrs ago .Crap now i'm really dating myself. If they are still made can they be had in different rim sizes, like i was thinking maybe 17's in camaro bolt pattern In advance thanks for any info .

i'm sure that any hot rod shop or tire shop should be able to get them for you.

Well out here in the flatlands speed shops are a rarity pretty much limited to tire shops ,canadian tire ,etc .there is probably sumething in alberta or winnipeg so if some one would take pity on a flatlander and give me a website out west that would be fantastic . Pretty good line eh if i don't say so my self . Thanx a bunch & have a good weekend. Later bake.

Hey kota thanx bunchs Ihope this thing with the chrome reverse rims isn't a silly notion but i hope they will look good on the car , i'm thinking 17's to fill the wheel wells & fresh burgandy peral .Looked really good 1st time around & stock Z28 mags . The damn thing would change from a purplish to a red sparklely colour depending on the sun lite . Enough rambling & talk 2 u later

What wheels do you have?
The 5 spoke steel, 5 spoke aluminum, or the aluminum turbine style.
I prefer the clean look of the factory wheels myself.
Old pic but this was one of my second gen cars with another one in the garage.

Nope none of thee above.They sort of look like the TA mags but not .They were made 4 GM by i beleive Western wheel or some thing like that.They had a push in centre that had the Z28 logo on them.I'll try and get into the garage this weekend & double check on the name of the mags .The guy i bought the car off of said they were pricey if you wanted to buy them out of the paper .Talk to u later Bake
