Those are Torq Thrust "Ds". All the TTs I have Appear to look like TT Originals. I would be interested to know if there ever was a kit with the "Ds".

Yup, Torque Thrust D.

I'd have to go back and check the stash.  But did not the new version AMT 62 Bel Air/Impala have non Chrome Torq Thrusts as an option?  Don't know what variant if yes

These are the ones in the AMT 62 Chevrolet Bel Air/Impala.  This example is from the Impala SS Convertible kit

Nice.  After you saying that, I'm thinking I might have a set that came in the 61 Impala kit.  I'll have to dig it out tomorrow.

I am not sure about the latest release, but the AMT '55 Chevy Nomad comes with TT D's as an option.

These are from a very early AMT '55 Nomad kit...

  ...so "these" are "D"s?

Those are the D's. The spokes kind of arch outwards. They were designed to clear disk brake calipers on disk brakes.

There's a nice set in the Polar Lights '65 Dodge Coronet.  Probably a rarer kit nowadays though. 

Thanks Bill.  Not really looking to put out big bucks for a kit just for the wheels.
