tdaaj Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 does any one know of a wheel manufacturer that still stocks these wheels? i'vwe been to just about every tire and wheel sellers website and either can't find them or can't find anything smaller than 16" in the 6 on 5.5 bolt pattern.

pope_face Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Are we talking smoothies? I haven't been able to find anything over 15" for my truck, and I wanted 16x8's. American Racing has them up to 15x8 with the caps. They're usually chromed, but when I talked to a shop they told me they could order them in without the chrome and I could get them powdercoated myself. But... now that I've got the stockers I might just use those. They just need a good clean and a powdercoat... and maybe some whitewalls... Quote Link to comment
1lo620 Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I had a set that came off a Datsun I bought for parts...they where only 14s...I would check, Les Schwab and tell them what your looking for they might be able to help. Alot of those vintage styles are coming back.... Quote Link to comment

datsun dreamer Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 I ordered a complete set of Smoothie's from Pep boys a few years back, they look very similiar to the original 50's style Baby Moons:D But are more easier to find:)! Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 They also offer these in a 14x7 to suit a 510. :D Quote Link to comment
purple Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Paulsen Wheels. Pete Paulsen i an ol school hot rodder. His guy mae me my 14x6 6 lug smoothies with baby moons, an 4 lug ones to match. I have a Courier rear end an a Pinto front end in my car, with the hub caps on the wheels look identical. At the time I lived near them, so I drove my car there and he test fitted them before welding the centers in. Quote Link to comment
