Thread: help i am looking for torque thrusts

Tweet

i need two front wheels to match my rears torq. thrst , americans , et's , ansens dont really care as long as they match need then 15 x 4 ,15x 5 , maybe 15 x 6 but have to be ford 5 x 5.5 bolt pattern .. they are the 5 spoke round spoke like torque thrust d gey centers and polished lip

Check ebay, they come up quite often there.

Yup,bunch of em on EBay.

There are lots of these and similar mags that do show up on Ebay and other places, but the problem is finding the 5 x 5.5 bolt pattern. I would love to find a set for the front of my rpu project, especially the gasser spoked ones, but no one is currently making them in that bolt pattern and the old ones rarely show up.

Not sure why, back in the day they made a zillion different wheels with that bp, but they either got scrapped or some people are hoarding them.

yea i have been watching ebay but the bolt pattern, kills me thinking about wheel adapters

you mean like these .. 15X 4 from summitt racing .. i just painted them black ..

Yeah, but it is the bolt pattern that is the problem. Seems like everyone carries 5 x 4.5 and 5 x 4.75, but not 5 x 5.5. When I do see old mags on Ebay with that BP they seem to go for stupid money (like $ 1000 a pair)

i dint catch that .. he needs them for a ford truck or so ..

Yep, and early Ford also. My 47 that I owned years ago had a perfect set of original Raders on it with that BP. Wish I had those now.

What's funny was that in about 1964 I bought about the first pair of American Torque Thrusts to be seen in my area, and I paid $ 50 each for them, and I had to save up to get those! Where is that time machine I have been looking for????????

Don
