I know they used to be made under the "Warrior" name but that company no longer makes them. I'd be interested in seeing if anyone makes them either chrome lip or black with trim ring if anyone knows where I could get them. Thanks, Mike

When these wheels were first reproduced I looked at them at the Nationals and complained to the seller as to why no 15x6???
After all 15x6 was one of the original sizes so if your going to reproduce a Niche type wheel why not do it correctly??
He got upset and offered to make me a set for about 10K even though the 15x7's were $1800.

Next year at Carlisle the same vender was there with his display and low and behold 15x6 with trim rings very close to originals.
I borrowed the $2300 from a friend (still $1800 for the incorrect one's)and bought my set. It's a love it or hate it and I LOVE it!!
I have 10 new left-hand lugnuts if you find your wheels.

Looks very nice. I didn't know they took special lug nuts. Everyone seems to put redlines on them but I thought pinstripe whites were also an option. Would look great with the blue.

Did they recall the reproduction recall wheels too?

No, they revoked the reproduction of the recall

So then maybe they will come out with the Warrior II and call it "The Revoke Wheel"

Nice, but the car would be less maintenance, can be used more often than the pool, is less risk as far s the insurance company is concerned and you could take it when you move into another house. Plus... it's got those oh so cool wheels that were the original topic of the thread. LOL

Specialty wheel has had my order on national back order since October. I hope they make these wheels by Spring. So few they are not available now and have been on back order for a LONG TIME!
