Old School Cragars

[garryjohnson]

I had a red '68 Firebird convertible when I was a teenager (late 60s, early 70s). I wanted Cragers, but all I could afford was Chrome Reverse. Still looked bad as hell. Like an idiot, I sold that car when I joined the Navy in '74.

As others have mentioned, offset is the biggest hurdle. I looked into getting a set for my silver XL AWD (which I traded for my current Atlas Blue XLT FX4) and finally gave up because everyone that had them told me they would not work on an AWD/FWD vehicle.

Cragers are cool. Appliance wire spoke mags were cooler.

The offset will be an issue as well as finding the bolt pattern. My 90 FWD Cadillac Fleetwood had a wheel that kept losing air and just for fun, I put one of the Magnum 500 wheels from my Ranger on the front. It looked great, but was only a temporary fix while I got the Caddy wheel fixed. Never tried it on the rear as it looked like it might interfere with the fender skirts as the offset was obviously wrong.
