    just found this on the NET, SPYDER WHEELS, but they´re pricey on ebay. and the ones for sale have the lug patterns for other vehicles.

    These wheels were also OEM on AMC's from 69 to 72 and were a Dealer Option then on Mopars. The bolt pattern was 5 on 4 1/2, the same as Ford. They came in a wide variety of widths in 14" and 15". If I remember right they came in 4" up to 8 or 10" They are kind of pricey now but are still around. One place you can check if you want them is AKH Wheels in Ellensburg, Wa. They have quite a few of the older wheels. Their phone # is 509-929-2776. Good luck. :bananaman:tiphat:

    Nice wheels. They look heavy.
    That Comet sure looks like a model.
