Morgan19d Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 It will be awesome if it is the Alcoa wheels revived! With everything Jer has managed so far, it wouldn't surprise me. I will however keep my hopes down until the time comes, lol... besides, I am saving up for the Bash right now! BUT... there are always tax returns...

Secondo Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Hopefully it will have the correct offset and backspacing this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afdharley Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Hopefully it will have the correct offset and backspacing this time. I'm new to the Alcoa wheels. What was the offset and back spacing and what should it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hawkins Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Honestly, I am thinking it might be the Wheels from the CS Tribute Car now being offered. Didn't they say they will be offering a Wide Body Kit? You need the Wheels to fill the Wheel Wells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang loco Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Been hearing about the Alcoa's that might come back..this would be great news and I would go for another set if pricings right as well...Wonder if they're would be some demands for them.. if a "widened" wheel could be part of the new run of wheels as well??

HyperStangs Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Honestly, I don't believe it will be the Alcoas... if I were a bettin' man I'd say its the wheel on the Shelby 1000/Tribute cars. Everything I've read or heard thru the grapevine says the Alcoa/Shelby American relationship is less-than reliable. Also, it seems to me the Alcoas would be a step backwards, no matter how popular they are. Just one man's opinion.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCLAman Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 If they are the Alcoas, what would they be priced at? (Sorry I didnt read all 18 pages of the ALcoa thread) Would the price be inflated??? Dang it! i cant wait till Monday!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyperStangs Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 This is PURE speculation on my part, but assuming what is under the drape is a wheel I have to say it does not look like an Alcoa. If it were IDENTICAL to the old Alcoas then the undulations of the cloth that have worked inward on the wheel face would be hitting the spokes... which they are not. Also, its very fitted around the top portion at around 11 o'clock and there too the folds of the cloth are not hitting any spokes. At around 9 o'clock on the cloth it appears to me at least that the wheel has an outer rim, again without a spoke, but could very well be the outer rim on the Shelby 1000/Tribute. Again, this is ENTIRELY speculation on my part, and may be reaching VERY far... but assuming what is under this cloth is indeed the actual item we are going to see on Monday, and is in fact a wheel... which it likely is, then my take once again is either the new SS wheel or the Tribute wheel rather than the Alcoa.

They will have what maybe 20 people duplicate the tribute car? How many people want to cut into their car just for a set of 13" wheels for $20,000. Not as many that want a 20x9 and 20x11 that fits a 315 safely on it.. They might as make the tribute wheels from gold, wouldn't sell as many as the Alcoas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just ordered my set of four. To clarify, a single $500 deposit is good for up to 6 wheels (I figured folks might want to buy spares). The wheel pricing is on the Deposit page.
