Default Coker Artillery Wheels

I'm thinking of getting a set of the Coker artillery wheels for my 35 coupe.

Has anyone installed these?

Pictures and comments?

Thanks, Joe

Make sure they will bolt up correctly to your drums.

Thanks TJ. I should've mentioned I have a Ford 9" rear and new style drums up front.

Thanks, Joe

Have you looked at Wheel Smith? Don't know what the price difference may be but they actually build their own wheels and you can get them made any way you want. They made wheels for me with a setback that I couldn't get from the other resellers.

Another vote for Wheel Smith. Not only will they custom build wheels for your application but their powder coating is the best I've seen to date.

Just for info if you go with Wheel Vintiques (I think they are owned by Coker) you may be able to order them from Summit and save some money on tax and shipping.

You might try Rally America? They specialize in wire wheels but they may either make or know a source for what your looking for.
