Cragar-style. Something like this:

Like if I wanted to put mags on an early Corvair/Comet/Falcon/Skylark/F-85.

Anyone remember a kit that had these?

Well, maybe. Aoshima had a series of kits that were jacked up to look like 70's era American street machines. They called it the "hot Rod" series. Seems to me that one of them may have had 4 spoke Cragars. I cant find that one on the interweb. Heres the only pic I could find on any of them. Perhaps this could get you pointed in the right direction.

Revell's Datsun-510 Tuner Series has a set of American looking wheels with very nice low profile tires. I think they offered a similar wheel and tire in their 240Z release also.

Aha! Thanks for pointing me there:

Somehow I keep thinking I saw wheels like these on some AMT kit in the late '60s - like some odd VW or show car or dune buggy kind of thing, but I just can't place it.

I could definitely use these to make a baby Bellflower cruiser out of that '61 Comet I have stashed away...
