Rocket mags from '70's
 

Anyone remember Rocket Racing Wheels from the '70's? I had a set of chrome 5 spokes (like Cragar SS but with a "pointed" spoke instead of flat)I bought new in 1976. They seem non-existant now. Would love to find a set!

My brother had them on his 71 Z.. I have been looking for a set myself for quite some time. The caps seem to be an easy find but the wheels are not so easy. The ones I have found are mostly in 14in.

I know what you mean about old wheels. We had a "Big O" tire store here when I was a kid, sold ET's. Being cheap and liking the fact they were unilug so if I traded cars the wheels would still fit, I bought a set of the ones that look like Torq Thrusts. Now I wanted another set for the old look. Found some on ebay, bought em, and restored them. Now when I go to the car show the wheels get more attention than the car.

Did the Rocket wheels have a Chromed Cast center like Cragars or were they stamped steel? I recall SOME wheel that had the same look as a Cragar, but was all steel. Maybe Appliance? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
