I was just wondering what the rarest MoPar wheel may be?
I know H-code wheels that are dated for the A12 crowd are desireable, but not all that rare.
Kelsey-Hayes magnesium alloy wheels for early 60's 300's/letter cars?
The infamous K/H "recall wheels"?
The one year only 71 Sport Fury GT wheel with "special" full trim ring? The wheel was unique and would only fit the full ring and cap.
Solid 15" H/D "tow-package" wheels?
Thoughts,....comments are appreciated! Thanks.

I've always had many requests for the big H wheels dated prior to the build date of the '69 M-code cars, 1968 Hemi wheels, 450 15x7" wheels, & any of the pre-68 wheels that hold the large dog dish cap - both 14" & 15". I've never had a 450 wheel to sell, & cannot supply any of the others I listed anymore. The most in-demand of all among the years I have been selling wheels are the big H wheels.

I realize they are out there, several other models used them. Generally disc brake and large body or hd applications. They are rare though, especially a set of 4 or 5 with correct codes. The application is 68 Hemi car or 68 Station Wagon. Luckily my car (68 Charger R/T) had one original wheel on it. Through Moparts and eBay I was able to find 3 more. My brother has an extra one so I'll have all 5. Date codes will be a challenge as my car is early.

I was thinking wheel, but including the cover is a good idea.
The 71 Sport Fury GT wheel is unique, and the wheel cover, actually it's a trim ring, only fits on that specific wheel; none other. With only 375 '71 GT's made and not all of them had these wheels and rings, I'm leaning on this one being the rarest.
