I sold a complete set several years ago for $1,600. I sandblasted & repainted the wheels and the center caps had been rechromed. Trim rings were complete but needed straightening.

I had 2 NOS Machine wheels and centers for several years, and never could find 2 more, so I wound up selling them for about $300 in the 1990's.

6PakBee i think your about right on with real world prices maybe a little high on the top but maybe not if spending $60000.00 to build your car.
I think someone could lay out the hole pattern on a nc machine and it would secure itself on center hole and cut the holes exactly like they should be on the out sides.
The wheel should be balanced when you balance the tire ? Dog. Smile

I mounted a ringless set of Machine wheels up with mud tires and ran them on a Comanche for a while around 1998 lol

Back spacing and width were a good match for 31x10.5's and 32x11.5's Clap

The only replacement rim shells I found are 12-5/8” O.D. Any idea where I can find a replacement rim shell to fit?
