Emmanuel,
   
   I know gerry does Halibrands either his own or the FIA type, cost seems pretty good.

Hi Emmanueld
   
   Halibrand is making these wheels again as NOS; you can find them at Halibrand.com
   
   Shelby is also selling them out of his Las Vegas operation.
   
   Regards,

I wanted a set of 16" since there are much more tire choices. I can also buy a set for Phil at PS Engineering, he is local. I would prefer having genuine Halibrands if at all possible. With the power of my motor, spline drive wires are no longer an option, only pin drive Halibrands will be safe. I wonder what size tires are to the rear of that car?
