Wheel Vintiques 00-7712514 Jeep smoothie wheel

Any body ever use this style wheel. Got a 1968 c10 short/ wide and I was wondering if it has been used before.

That particular wheel only fits on 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern .https://www.wheelvintiques.com/jw-se...-smoothie.html

Some people call them transport wheels because some rigs that are sold with big alloy rims are transported on them to prevent theft of the alloys.

They are popular with the AD and 60/66 brigade.

They are offered in 5x5 lug pattern. With 17x9 with a 5” back spacing. Wonder how that would fit on my 68

I like the smoothie look quite a bit, but the 5" back spacing would set the tire too far into the wheel wells for my taste. This could be good for the lowered truck, however.
