Default Cragar wheels, what do you think?

I'm considering a set of cragar like wheels on ebay and wanted some opinion or pics if anyone has them. Let me know your opinions. Here's a pic of the wheel.

Cragar like? I don't know what the quality would be of those. Who's the seller? There are some real Cragars on there for 750 shipped in 18x9, those are good quality and the company is great.

Yeah, a lot of people have these, but you just can't go wrong with that "classic" look.

What is the offset of the ones you purchased? If your car has been/or will be lowered, you will want to make sure that the offset is +.36 or greater or you will have problems.

I sell Cragar wheels (in fact, I just shipped a set of them to St. Louis this past Friday).

Not really. I think you might be mistaking them for TTII's.

That's kind of what I was thinking. Not that they're rare or anything... but you definately see A LOT more TT II's

The TT II's were everyone's reponse to the fact that the Cragar's don't come wide/big enough for us to actually want them on our cars.

How big are the TTII's instead? I was only looking for 17's, and the difference between craggars 17x9 and TTII 17x9.5 that I saw wasnt enough to consider, really.

TT II's come in sizes up to 17x11, the Cragar's don't come in anything wider than 9", except for the 18x9.5.

I don't think they look like TTII's, the spokes are much wider. I


would say TTII are more common cause the look the best on F-bodies!
