-
How does a Texan Wire Wheels product differ from another?Texan Wire Wheels™ 30 Spoke wheels are more durable than the original. Our products are made of solid steel. The hub of an original 1983- or 1984-vintage wire wheel is made of pewter which is traditionally between 85 and 99% tin…a much softer, less durable and easily breakable material. If left untreated, pewter will oxide to a dull gray over time. In essence, our product is a modified version of the original by changing the hub design and making the ’83s™ & ’84s™ wire wheel products durable and stable. So, with an original on one side of a car and a Texan Wire Wheels™ product on the other side of the car, there would be no visible difference between the two.

Can I buy an odd number of wheels (i.e. 1 or 5)?Yes, but you will first need to purchase a set of wheels or have purchased a set in the past. To purchase an odd number of wheels, please call our sales department at 1.877.847.9264 and press option 1.
