    It is styled like a Cragar SS....but is really a "copy" of that design by another company. Look like an Ansen wheel to me.

    I don't think it's an Ansen. IIRC, the Torq Thrust wheels that they made had a bolt on center cap, same with ET wheels. It's really close to the old Crager SS wheel.

    Didn't Ford offer a copy wheel that looked like that except the center spoke part was stamped steel instead of aluminum?
