Owner: Mr. Ron Henry - 15 X 6" Packard wire wheels
and wide whitewall tires from Truespoke. |
We are very
pleased with the wheels and tires from Truespoke.
They really made a beautiful difference in the
appearance of the car. Here are a few pictures of
our 1955 Packard Clipper Constellation. We
did a frame-off restoration and went back as close
to original as possible. The torsion suspension,
power seats, power antenna are all original. Only
change under the hood is the radiator. My photos do
not do the car justice. We appreciate you guys.
Thanks again for a superior product. Sincerely,
Stanley Ingram Alexander City, Alabama

1955 Kaiser
Manhattan - Owner: Mr. Richard Plante
One of the more unusual cars we have equipped is
this 1955 Kaiser Manhattan. These are special
"lip-lace" wheels. The spokes sit close to the
front lip of the rim.
This is needed for cars that have very little
room in the wheel wells, especially
cars with fender skirts. 1958 Impalas are tough
to fit with skirts and we can prepare rims like
this. The owner of this rare car is Mr. Richard
Plante who tells us: "Here are a few photos of
my 1955 Kaiser Manhattan with your wheels. They
fit beautiful no problems at all." Let us help
you select a proper-fitting wheel for your
collector car.

"Here are some
pictures of the Gran Turismo with your new wheels on
– got them mounted this week and have been driving
it all around these last 3 days – look great!
Thanks a lot for all of your patience with my
endless questions and your recommendations that
solved all of my many problems! Rob Cerame" These
wheels are 15 X 5" Lip-lace style with Chrysler
center caps

- It is not unusual for us to
prepare custom-built wire wheels for trikes such
as the one owned by our customer, Mr. Stephen
Wells of San Antonio, Texas. This Harley
Davidson powered rig runs our 52-spoke Hot Rod
style wire wheels. The spokes are chrome plated
steel and the hub and outer rim are powder-coated
in an ink-black finish. The hub caps are
stainless steel. The wheels measure 15 X 8" with
a 3.25" backspace on a reverse pattern. Notice
the perfect fit within the wheel wells.
- Along
with the pictures our customer sent us, he also
let us know, "Here are some pics from this
weekend when I picked up the trike at the shop
in San Antonio. The guy in the yellow vest
(shown below), with the red big wheel trike is
missing his right arm. He is an inspiration to
me. He volunteers at Brook Army Medical Center
working with soldiers injured in the war by
showing them that an amputation does not have to
be the end of the world. And he is not even a
vet, he was hit by a drunk driver. He built his
trike out of what was left of his motorcycle
after the drunk ran him down (himself). Thank
you again for expediting delivery of the wheels.

Robyn and
Ervin Souder own this incredible and rare Studebaker. The wheels
used are our
Chrysler spokes. Mr. and Mrs. Souder added the Studebaker
emblem themselves. Sweeeet! |

One of
the more interesting cars we have seen on Truespokes is the 1953
Jaguar XK-120 Coupe owned by Ben Buksa of Weirton, West
Virginia.
The 16 inch 50-spoke Truespokes with old 'skool
bias-ply wide whites looks fantastic.
