Help me find these wheels!!!!!!

  • Sponsors (?)


I haven't looked for those, but CenterLine has done away with a bunch of their Billet Series wheels including the Aztec's that I have on the 4-Eyed Freak. I may go buy new wheels and tires for it incase someone wants to buy it. I don't think I'm willing to part with my Aztec's.

Those wheels can be had in just about any size. Theyu are now called "Big Sur" but used to be call "Thruster" or something very similar to that. Centerline still has all the old molds for these rims and can make you a set in nearly any size you desire. I remember their only limitation being the size of the molds that they had for 4 lug was pretty small but I don't remember if that applied to the Big Dur or the Thruster. Just give them a call and tell them what you're looking for to see what they can do. When I was inquiring about these same rims, I remember them having wheels up to as wide at 11 inches in that style (regardless of they call them).
 
p.s. I have a nice photoshop of my cars with those wheels on it if you'd like to see it. The chop doesn't do them justice because they don't have that deep dish look in the picture.

That's basically what they look like with the centercaps on.

Hey dude, they don't have molds for that wheel. It is (or was) a billet wheel from their billet series. Whatever they are, CenterLine does not list them at all now, unless their website needs updating.
 
Moldings, castings, templates... whatever it is that they use to cut/make new ones, they still have on hand. It's true that the thrusters are discontinued but if you call them, they can make them.

The only reason I'm aware of it is because I'd called them before in regard to these same wheels and was told that they could still be had.

Cool, that should be the case. I think all of their billet series used the same billet blanks. From there it would just be calling up a different program in the CNC machining center that cuts them. They should never get rid of the programs, so as long as they still use the same exact billet blanks for there new styles, they should be able to make any of the old billet series wheels.
