    Jegs and Summit sell their own brand of skinnies. They make them to look like the prostars and draglites. They are one piece billet aluminium and are light as hell. They have the same strength as the weld pieces. I have them on my 66 with a 165r15 arizonan tires. The rims are 95 bucks and the tires are 50 a piece.

    I don't think the Summit wheels fit over the Cobra brakes. Maybe with a large spacer.

    They will fit with a one inch spacer just like the weld wheels will. Jeff if you need spacers let me know I have some at home you can have.
