I saw these at Quartzite on a GMC coach owned by a Jetsetter. Can't remember who, but they are American Mags. Person said they were half cost of Alcoa's. See this page on the Photo site. Just FYI

Larry,

Those are American Eagle wheels. They are shown on their website, and I bet Jim K could get them. The coach they are on belongs to one of the guys from California, I don't know who it was, but not a Jetsetter.

Those are Hoss's wheels. Carl is correct on American. I talked with him about them. I believe the pricing is about the same as Jim's Eagles. Not sure why Jim does not sell them. Could be the weight rating is not the same.

These are made by American Eagle and are non hub centered.
We have supplied them for our customers.
They are little more in cost but less than the Alcoas.
I believe we sell them for$215 complete, with valve stems, lug nuts
and center caps.
