They are going on a multicolor, slightly rough '68 mustang fastback.

I can't wait to see them on.

Oh ya. I remember him starting a thread about that car.
Should look good on that too.

No. You don't see many mustangs with minilites, these wheels are going on a 70 Camaro.

My favorite wheel, and also American mags like the ones on my hotrod.

I always loved the oval slot American mag wheels. My dad had a pickup truck with them when I was a kid. Mini lites remind me of a Baja Bug or dune buggy.

Gotta love mini's. My bro has more than a few sets of 'em.

Ah, sorry, I stand corrected. I thought I remembered you mentioning the minilites in that other thread.

Yeah, I've always liked slots. I assume they are probably pretty heavy in most cases.

Unless they are Trans-Am cars. (May not really Mini's though either, might be Superlites)

I think I did mention Minilites about the Mustang, but I doubt if we'll do that. Actually think the torq thrust D's might be a better choice.

That’s going to look awesome.

Shaun @ Tru6 06-24-2020 08:40 AM

cool wheels! How much do they weigh?

20.1 lbs per wheel

Shaun @ Tru6 06-24-2020 09:16 AM

Not too bad and I think they will look great. I got these CanAm wheels years ago, Chevy bolt pattern, they are 12 pounds for a 10x16 wheel.

I have a pair of barely used American Racing Torq Thrust D’s for the Mustang that are 16x9, fairly certain they do not make them anymore

Beautiful!

They look great on all of the pony cars of that era... especially when they are lowered to reflect the stance those cars ran in Trans-Am.
