The website for Centerline Wheels is http://www.centerlinewheels.com/ The
billet wheels are the ones which can be ordered in the size we need for
Bricklins. Don't change any of the dimensions or you will get interference
problems.
The model I bought was the Scorpion. I liked the look and it is a relatively
closed wheel so the brake drums and such don't show through. Another model
which is closer in appearance to the original Bricklin wheels is the Pulsar.
The best price I found was mail ordering them from Summit Racing.
I have heard mixed things about truing original Bricklin wheels. Terry Tanner
says many just can't be trued. Other folks have had good experiences. Buying
new wheels isn't much more expensive than fixing up your old ones so I think
the decision depends mainly on whether it is important to you to keep the car
original. Whatever you decide, don't throw away the original wheels. They are
rare.
