I don't know what they weight, but I got mine from Newstalgia Wheel. Everybody's prices are similar, could have bought them from anybody. I got mine from them because they specifically advertised the correct right and left lug nuts. When my wheels came, the lug nuts were not in any of the wheel boxes. Called them and quickly had the problem fixed. fyi, the rear wheels will be 8.5, not 8. newstalgiawheel

15x4.5 front 15x8 rears. Got mine from Summit because they include shipping and brokerage fees in their quotes. Not sure on the weight but they are light. Best choice for an early b body too.

Newstalgia Wheel doesn't list the Torque-Thrust D in a 15x8 size, but Summit does.

It has a 4.5 inch backspacing instead of the 3.75" backspacing of the 15x8.5

Thinking about getting a complete set for my 64 Polara 500 anniversary gold with a white top. 15x6 front and 15x8 rear. Anyone know how much they weight and had any experience with vendor.
Thanks
My wife talked me into getting another pair for the rear I was going for the same look as Ron's 63 but then the wife said lets go to Summit and get some for the rear(did I say how much I love this wonderful woman)Then I could see she was right It looked awesome Gus
Gus your car looks very awsome ! Ron

If your not set on Torque Thrust only wheels just picked up a set of these for my Challenger. They are called "Old School" wheels by MB Wheels, they came boxed up from Voxx. Got them on a black Friday sale at Discount Tire Direct for $78 a wheel, I think they are normally $91 each. I bought four 15x8 with 4 1/2 rear spacing. They sell a 15x7 also.
