put the new tuff wheel on...

[abodyjoe]

been wanting one since i saw the one on my buddy kens car. saw nice with one he bought from mancini yesterday. made sure it was the diameter i wanted and went and bought the last one they had. $103. thought that was a decent price.

was worried about how it would fit or even if it would fit using the rim blow adapter i have and if the horn **** would all work without a kit. well after looking at kens i knew the horn would work and when we got home yesterday i checked the bolt pattern and yup it fit.

so i painted the adapter and put the wheel on today. love the way it looks. can't wait to take the car for a beating and see how it feels now...

Looks good Joe! Got the same one for my car.

Oh yea, real nice. I gotta do something with my Dusters wheel, like the first picture. Drives me nuts looking at that thing.

Thinking about the Grant Challenger in Satin.

Nice, Joe. I recently put a grant on mine

 

[abodyjoe]

can't beat it for the money in my opinion..

Joe, What was the diameter of the wheel? Is it the Grant remake, and if so, what was the model #. Did the adapter, and center cap come with it for that price? I've been wanting to change out my 4 spoke Grant. Thanks, Tim.

 

[abodyjoe]

yes its the new grant. its 15" diameter and a 2 1/4 dish (from the box tag). it is exactly the same diameter as the stock wheel wich is why i bought it.. the number on the box says "#846 classic series".

center cap comes with it but thats it. the adaper i had from a rim blow car and it fits perfect. the thing they wanted to sell me for $42 was ugly as hell and too small of a diameter.

Looks much better to me.
I never liked the padded cone horn buttons in anything.

Thanks gents, There will be one heading to Maine soon. Tim

 

[AdamR]

Tim, try to get a Rim blow/ Tuff wheel color for your column instead of the grant adapter. It looks a ton nicer.

 

[Pine Tree Mopar]

Thanks Adam, I do like the look of Joe's. Nice and clean, and everything works. Now I just need to find one, or do they repop these as well? Tim

 

[AdamR]

You will need a used one.

Looks real nice. I got the wood wheel from Grant. I llike it a lot. The only thing is the horn button shot off at me when I was going to the spring fling this year. Scared me pretty good. but I think I got it fixed.
