Got mine already, gathering dust in boxes stacked in the closet. But it's good to know that replacements are available!

I really like the super trick orig flat finish.
I use to run them back in the day but on the street they just couldn't take the roads.
I've got 3 cracked fronts up stairs in my garage,all of them cracked from the valve stem hole to a bolt hole.I just gave up trying to run them and switched over to centerline.
I'd buy a set of 4 if they had the orig embossed blue Cragar logo..without the orig center cap they just don't have that true back in the day look.IMO
Those rims back in the day were for serious street cars ..

The solid face Super Tricks and Centerline wheels are great except on deep off set rear rims you may find that when used with large diameter rear disc brakes that the inside rim diameter is too small to clear the calipers.Most of these wheels are 13" inside dia. while most discs are 14"+ at the high points of the caliper.

Now that I see what the new trick wheels look like,they remind me of centerline wheels with bolts..
They need to have that white spun alum look..it's the white alum that draws your eye.IMO

The pic shown looks like a 70's Super Trick to me, what's missing?

I really liked the 70's style Keystone Classics with the large center cap too, any chance of 15 x 3.5 versions of those being made? I have a 64 Savoy that's begging for a set LOL.

Hey, everybody!

Thanks for letting everyone know about Trick Wheels new, "Bolt." It is a 1-piece forging that looks exactly like a Cragar Super Trick. Tried to make it as close as possible. Even the center cap is exactly like a spun Cragar cap - just not embossed. In fact, I may emboss some later, but I like being able to "print" it. See "news" section for article on center caps.

So far, we have fronts (15"x3.5" with 1.75" b.s.). Working on rear sizes - lots of engineering drawing time and CNC programming for each size… Glad to have the first ones done. Whew!

P.S. 15"x3.5" Gyros (5-slot) and 15"x3.5" Flys are next!

trickwheels.com




Will these be stronger than the original, so more streetable?

I think someone got into legal trouble from what I heard and this idea is a no go now

Here is a pic of the fronts, they are now street legal and are coated to retain the satin look

Heck, Flys look good on any car!
The fasteners on the Tricks look different than what's on mine (hex head), but the Fly replicas look accurate.
10 years ago, I had to spend a LOT to get Mg Fly fronts & alum Fly rears. (There are VERY few Mg rears that survived.)
Real Flys also use a weird shank size, but I'm not sure about center cap diameter; Fly caps are $pendy...
