What wheels? (What wheels are similar to these?)

Post by MrJakes » 14 Sep 2012 06:54 pm

I'm not one to be able to identify wheels at a single glance but I know there are some people who are able to do just that.

The wheels in question are used on the #78 Furniture Row Chevy Impala driven by Regan Smith and have a real old school look about them. Chrome outside, black inside.
Just wondering if there's anything similar available in the UK. I've had a quick look around but there are so many of them. Just wondering if someone would have an idea straight away.
So, what wheels are most similar to these? Sorry for the ridiculously large photo, but it's the only one that you can make out any real detail from.

Late reply but thanks, at least now I know what I'm looking for.

I've already found a pair that would be suitable I think.
