I was just wondering if anyone can give me some more info about the Cragar S/S wheels on the HRE camaro for sale in this post. I think they are sick looking on the camaro and I want to purchase a set but can not find out what style, size, offset, width , etc. I don't even know if they are steel or aluminum? I mean it sucks what's going on with GMMG so I can not even call Matt and ask him. So I am just throwing this out there to see if maybe by some chance someone knows a Cragar part # or some where I can buy a set . Plus it looks like Jim is the man to ask about this stuff And if I had the cash I would pick up this car in a heart beat its only going to increase in value. good luck with the sale Jim.

The Cragar S/S wheels that were original equipment on the HRE Camaro are no lomger produced.

Thanks for the info that really sucks , figures i finally find a wheel I like and its no longer made great:bomb:. So that also means everyone with a HRE camaro can never get a replacement wheel god forbid something happens , that don't make sense.

Matt and I went together several years back and had a quanity of these made as people were wanting them after they saw them on the ZL-1 SuperCar and the Hot Rod Magazine Camaro. The guy that had originally made them for Matt was in California and the wheels were actually made in China. Matt and I had to put in a large order to have them re-made and then Matt and I split the order.

To answer some of your questions.....................the offset on the 17x9" wheels was a +.32 and the offset on the 18X9" wheels was a +.36. They were a chromed aluminum wheel. They were actually a Bullit wheel with a Cragar S/S center cap. Matt and I both sold all of these wheels and DemonSS here on this website bought the very last set I had to put on his 4th Gen Camaro.

You know the old saying..................................snooze.... .......you loose.

I wish I could help you but I can't. I'm not in the automotive business anymore and Matt is impossible to get ahold of. I DON'T BELIEVE that he has any of these wheels left anymore but even the guy that had these re-manufactured for us "disappeared" too. :bang:

Anyway, here are some pic's of the cars that my shop put them on when I owned the shop:

JD - You always amaze me with your photos & info.
Thanks. Jim

Did GMMG cars have 18"s on the rear? How did I not know that? Is that true?

Did GMMG cars have 18"s on the rear? How did I not know that? Is that true?

The ZL-1's only came with 18's FRONT and REAR. In fact, the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperCar tires are P275/40ZR18 94Y all the way around the car.

The Hot Rod Magazine cars came with 17's FRONT & REAR.

Here are some pictures the day that my half of the wheel order was delivered to me. They delivered several pallets on that truck. The pictures below only show a couple of pallets as my guys had already put most of the wheels up before I took most of these pictures:

That's neat. I didn't realize that. We actually got a set for our '01 Berger. I believe it was one of the last sets Matt had. I think they look great.

Do you know how similar these are to the 17x9 American Racing Torq Thrust Ms? To me, the look very similar.

Thanks

True, I got the last set that 02 phase II had. I was lucky. I wanted another set but was unable to get.
This is pic of them on my 02 SS
