Yenko AP Wheels?
Hi All !
I finally got a Nomad , and it came with a full set of AP Torq Thrust style wheels. Doing a little research, it seems these are the same as came on the Yenko Camaro? Look at my profile and have a look... Can anyone confirm? Thanks and happy Sunday! Dana Last edited by MacDuff; 06-04-2017 at 03:15 PM. Reason: Mid-spelled

Atlas was the supplier for those wheels. Theres plenty of threads on this topic on the site.

Yours are Appliance wheels. Not Yenko issue but very nice torq thrust copies.

Thanks for that, Scuncio!
Unfortunately I think I am going back to the stock wheels with hubcaps and white walls! If anyone is interested in the set, I'll be glad get them to a happy home.

Thanks! I bought the front and rear wheels separate, by about 4+ years! The rear wheels have more offset than I'd like, causing me to have to lift it a little - but gave it a nice rake. The AP wheels are a very nice, high quality wheel - but from Japan!!

Just found these in a basement last night. A/P caps n all. Great shape. Any identification to make sure they're Yenkos?

Need a pic. AP caps were on Appliance wheels. As explained in the posts above, Atlas was the wheel of choice for Don Yenko. Not Appliance.
