Here's a pic of the wheels Johnwb is talking about.

I know what pony wheels look like, so I am assuming he has the Silver Pony wheels?

go to the auto parts store or walmart it comes in a can its called performance wheel coating, take a center cap with you to get the right shade. remove the emblems before painting

The above pictured Pony wheels also come in chrome...are you talking about which to get restored? If you're refering to CHROME, you'd be better off buying instead of refinishing.

I've got a set of rims with BFG mounted on them...trying to sell, IF I can find some nice aftermarket wheels/tires to go on mine. They are mint condition, with the tires having 75% tread wear remaining.

Finding the 4 bolt pattern looks to be a vain search. I see the replica wheels, but am looking for something different. Any imput would be appreciated.

I'm getting stories like...nothing will fit, these will fit with a "guaranteed fitment"...have to use FWD styles...18's will fit, but not 17's, etc...

I've even got a call in to ZINIK...have yet to hear back from them. They might not be responsible to guarantee fitment for my application, and only sell the rims. Oh well

kkeene@sc.rr.com is my contact if you can at least point me in the right direction, but hey...I've been to MAAAAAAAAAAANY sites in search, and have come up dry thus far!
