Re: 67 Shelby rims

The spoke is narrower near the tire and wider by the center hub. The later issued wheels do not have tapered spokes. If you look at the 72Mach1 picture, the spoke is the same width. There are many variations of this wheel, because they were manufactured over 40 years by different suppliers. He didn't say what year his friend's car was, but the reality is very few 67/68 Shelbys ever had aluminum 10 spokes from the factory.
