Hope the flys are a close reproduction. I would have to have a set.

Getting old just means you were smarter than some and luckier than others.

It will be interesting to see what they weigh, and whether they get the color & texture right; that sample photo looks more like the color & texture of Centerlines.
The Motor Wheel Flys were IMO the best-looking drag wheel ever; went through all kinds of effort getting a set for my car, which had them back in the day before they switched to Super Tricks. Front Flys use some kind of plastic/urethane filler material between the inner & outer spokes, and I wonder if the repros will as well.
Rarer than Flys though are the magnesium Spyders - no chrome steel barrel, all cast. Basically impossible to find.

Just last night I found a set of 3.5 Super Tricks with the 5 lug bolt pattern up in storage above my shop. I have always ran the Super Tricks on my max wedge cars.

You have Centerlines that have been in production continuously since their intro in......75-fish. Ron's Dart above look line Centerlines as well.

Those wheels are a riveted 2 piece where the original spun aluminum wheel, the Cragar Super Trick was a bolted together 2 piece. The other diff is that in their natural state, Centerlines are more shiney than the super Tricks.

Centerline Auto Drags were not spun, and still not.

I worked there for some time..

They were press formed then riveted together.

Front pieces were brushed to get the look before riveting..

Had to be very careful not to miss in the rivet press.

The new process wheels are unbelievable.. They even use a water jet type of forming machine.. Watched it myself..

I love the Super Tricks. But for some reason I kinda lean towards stock type wheels anymore.
It might be different if I had a race car or even something fast!

1969 Dart GTS 340
1969 Super Bee X9 N-96
1969 Coronet R/T X9 N-96
2015 Dodge Dart GT
2019 Ram 2500 Big Horn.
Looking for the original block for my Bee. The last 4 are 7449
