used 15 inch Magstar
« on: May 06, 2021, 05:40:17 PM »
Hi

I'm looking for 2 used 15 x 7 inch Magstars for 67 Shelby, could buy 2 new one's, but car has marked up used rims already, so even old aftermarket is appreciated, don't have to be original.

Thank you
Steve

Just answering here to let others know that we couldn't come to a deal on my used Magstars.  As mentioned, the early cars had "unpainted" centers and you are looking for those that have the black inserts.  I've witnessed others painting the raw aluminum as the were from the factory, but understand that isn't what you want to do for your car.
Best of luck and the door is still open for anyone having Magstars and can ship to Canada.

FYI  the later magstars were painted a very dark gray but never were they black from the factory. Black is what the after market paints them because they ether didn't know any better or it was easier.

FYI you can't tell if original from the KH mark on the backside of the Magstar center casting. Most all the repros that I am aware of have KH marked centers . The trademark is not protected and the repro casting with its KH mark has been used by various companies for decades now. I think Craig Conely initially had them cast up and other companies followed suit.
