They look a lot like the Wald Duchatelet 3 piece wheels. NEW PIC!

There is an extra valve stem with the TPS on the inside.

Exhaust is like Mike Mike Maloys with the large second muffler removed. It has a glass pack V8 muffler sound. Sounds like the other post with exhaust audio.

Thanks Tee!

The pictures don't do the wheels justice. For 20's they don't look that big either. I was surprised the 11's fit easily on the rear. Didn't have to modify the fenders, just cut the liner back some...

Very nice, glad to see more sc owners are into dish wheels.
The center piece alone tells me it is not Wald Duchatelet. haha
Care to share your offset info with us?
Also what exhaust tips do you use?

This pic shows the size of the rears. The Wheel Shop doesn't have the offset information. I will try to get more info on the offset. Yes MYBAD, these are the ones I showed you. They are painted silver though, I think I need to get the centers (3 piece wheels) machined so they POP. Just not standing out in silver...

The new tips are made by Different Trend, Inc. (model number DT-052). They are 4” slanted, rolled, double layer tips. Didn’t see anything on the internet, muffler guys should know where to get them. Look a lot like the originals...

It is a bit strange that they sold you the wheels without knowing the offset info. You better find it out now because you will need the offset info when you sell your wheels in the future.

I myself prefer wheels with machined face to silver face as well.
