Hello. : If your car is a 6 cyl, as in four lug nuts instead of five, I think I know a guy that has a set that he would be tickled pink to get rid of.

Hi again. I just talked to the guy on the phone and he says that he has a set of them. If you want I could PM you his phone number and you could call him. But, in all fairness, I have to tell you why those wheels are so hard to find. They look really stupid on the car. Most of them have been sent to the scrap yards by now. You can have exactly the same look with the same style of wheel covers in the 14 inch size, and that looks sooooo much better.

Veronica has a good point and you might want to consider a 14 or 15 inch replacement. The 4 lugs don't offer a whole lot of variety but there are some choices out there. This website has some nice choices for the 4 lugs...

Rims, Tires, Tire and Wheel Packages - Chrome Wheels and Tires from Performance Plus Tire

Just food for thought.

Ok... that makes sense if you're trying to look stock for shows. I missed that in your earlier post. Let us know how you come out and we'll keep our eyes peeled on this end for what you're looking for.

Hopefully Veronica's friend can hook you up.

Cheers.
