The light weight aluminum Cragar Super Tricks were out well before Centerlines and were the popular race wheel from the late 60's through the 1970's. Cragar then released the Super Street Trick which were the steel chrome version with the bolts. I was never fond of those as they looked cheap.
As stated above, Centerline Auto Drags would have been around 1974 and quickly became the hot wheel throughout the latter half of the 70's and into the 80's. I still like the auto drags best of all the solid wheels. ![]() Drag Pic with Cragar Super Tricks 1974 ![]() Same car today with Auto Drags

Oh what a happy day when I got my C-lines! That was around 1980. I had to buy them one wheel at a time. I had a minimum wage job at 18. Tarp and wood seen in foreground was dad's firewood. He made me park my car in the back lot of the farm so, as he said, he didn't have to look at my car. Guess you can understand my folks were less than thrilled with my obsession?
My other blue (special paint) SS back in the day. Yep still have it and going to sell it.

Did you leave out the word "not"? As in not going to sell it? BTW what color blue was the car? |

This car is Lemans Blue, ( black HT)which in itself, was not a special paint. The reason it is special paint is that it was ordered with a black vinyl top, which, by default, dictated it should have black D90 striping. The OP wanted white D90, so it then became a special paint car.
