Centerline wheels

Does anyone have these wheels? or seen these wheels? I've seen hundreds of centerlines in my life, but i have never seen these, so I'm in search of pictures of trucks with these wheels and curious if these wheels are even worth having. I picked them up just because they were 5x5 thanks in advance, i apologize for the sideways pictures.

Re: Centerline wheels

Centerline Convo HT cast wheels. Nice wheels . They are heavier and do not have the same polished outer rim that the Convo wheels have . The Convo is a 2 piece wheel but the Convo HT is a one piece cast wheel if my memory serves me right. Nice wheels though and somewhat unique these days so run em and enjoy being different. You won't see many other trucks in your area with them.

Re: Centerline wheels

I do see what you're talking about. Could the older wheels possibly be built slightly different? Heres some being sold as "vintage" that seem to have the same ridges as yours. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-15-x-8-5...25.m3641.l6368

Edit: Looks like Monroe has solved the mystery.

Re: Centerline wheels

High quality American made wheels. Centerline came on the scene in the 70's with a dramatically lighter aluminum wheel popular in drag racing - essentially the forerunner to what Weld is now. Like the other guy said these are heavier "street" wheels, but still great quality and a more unique, period look. They really hold a polish well. I've hand polished the ones in the photos twice in 8 years...BTW these are 15x8.5 and I think 4.5" back spacing.

Re: Centerline wheels

Hello Cole, This is an old thread I was just referred to. I don't know if this is still relevant to you. Your wheels are Centerline H/T Cast Hellcat (style 34) (polished), they also had a chromed version (style 35). I'm sure they look good on your custom camper 20. I have the H/T Cast style 33 (they look exactly like convo pro's) on my 72 custom camper K20. Wouldn't have anything else. Got the vintage look, nobody else has them, and they're very heavy duty.
