My kinda O/T score from the swapmeet at Goodguys Bowling Green yesterday. A set of 18" Halibrand wheels w/ tires for $300. A couple of hours of polishing...... and my wife is off of my [Edited by Moparts - Keep it clean]. Her car now has big wheels.

I get to start on the Dodge in good graces!!!

Looks like a waste of good wheels to me, but as long as the wife is happy, all is good. Been married for 32 years, a happy wife makes life good. Gene

The wheels are 5x100 bolt pattern with a FWD offset. I don't think there is really anything out there in that pattern cool enough that justifies halibrand prices.

I didn't pay retail. I just found a good deal in the swap meet. $300 for a happy wife is cheap ....and opens the door wide open for serious work on the 41 dodge pickup.
