I am having a whale of a time sourcing a set of RIBBED edge trim rings for my 15x8 Rally rims. Every place I look has the smooth/rounded edged trim rings, ala Corvette.

Can anyone help me locate a pair of 15x8 ribbed trim rings?

Numerous phone calls and no luck. It appears the damn thing doesn't exist.

So at this point let me modify my question. Who makes the deepest 15x7 stainless trim ring with a rib? I found an outfit in WA that sell a 2 11/16" deep ring but I was looking for 3" or better.

I had the same problem when trying to use 15x8 in the rear, 15x7 in the front with 4.5" backspace on both.

I ended up using the same GM trim ring for both. Nobody ever mentioned that they were different and it looked great. I think DjD used to have these on the White Wonder.

Cfunk, I can't help you with the trim ring search, but that is a nice 67 that you have.
