bikermike Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 I picked up a set of these wheels over the weekend. Does anyone recognize them? They came from a late 70's Z-car. 4 x 114.3 and 6.5" x 14" and 3" backspace. There are no markings that indicate manufacturer. I have not taken the tires off yet to look inside. The knockoffs are cast and threaded. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
510kevin Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 im not much help for identifying them, but they are really nice lookin, id roll em!! ;) Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 I pretty sure they are roadster wheels here are a set on my brothers car.. and yes they came with the cast aluminum spinners we just chose not to run them. The offset is such he can`t lower car , in rear , any more than in picture, but if your not thinking of lowering car much they are pretty sporty.....195/60/14 tires My friend who gave them to us was VERY into roadsters And also the NOKOF spinners fit the superlite wheels we have too just the base of tower is bigger on the superlites.

bikermike Posted November 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 They look very close, except for the hub area. They are not an original roadster wheel, although they will mount. I'm trying to make them work on a stock height roadster. No one on the roadster forum could identify them yet. They are too tall and wide on the rear with 195/70/14's that they came with. I am going to try them with 185/65/14's. They look good on a 510 as well. Quote Link to comment
Willdatsun Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 They look a little bit like Keystone Turbo III or Rowdy, but those don't have threaded part. Quote Link to comment
bikermike Posted November 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 I think the ones posted above on the orange 510 are Keystone Rowdys. I think mine are a clone of those as they look very similar except for the center. Once I get the tires off I'll check if there are other markings or labels that will help to identify them. Thanks to all for responding. Quote Link to comment
