RE: Dog dish hubcaps????

[Jeff Adams <ledman_70@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My buddy works at a repair center called DiPietro Tire in Westerville, 
Ohio. I was in there the other day and he showed me a new line of wheels 
they were carrying. I'm not sure of the manufacturer, but they were nice 
and a lot cheaper than the American Racing counterparts. 1 wheel was a 
polished Torquethrust II copy that sold for all sizes up to 10" wide: 
$179. The other was an old Halibrand copy that kinda looks like a highly 
polished slot with larger windows that also sold for $179. The 10" in 
both wheels goes for $209. I figured you'd save $20-50 per wheel on 
these. They were very nice. I can probably get the manufacturer's name 
if anyone is interested.
