Closest thing to Plus-Size Turbines as we will prolly ever get?

The only thing that sucks is the  price, and they are only available in 18s and 20s. Maybe someone will make replicas one day.

The Vector SE looks like a close copy of the Buick WE-4 rims i will find a picture later of that model of the Grand national/T-type body style.

The IRS conversion uses 12" discs, those won't clear the calipers.
 
The wheels in the original post look more like stretched out Halibrands to me.

Funny, in searching for Cs66's I found this thread. Apparently I knew about these six years ago. Of course they're $500 cheaper now.
