Slotted Mags
If I remember correctly there was some discussion awhile back about slotted (US Indy) mag wheels. I was digging through some "treasures" next to the garage and came across this set. 15x10 4.5 rears and 15x8.5 5.5 fronts. Does anybody run these anymore?

That's what I'm using on my 49. I have had them since 1970. Mine are all 10's @ 5.5 bolt pattern.

those rear 4.5's are not worth anything. i will pay to ship them if you wanna get rid of them. JK. i think the slots fell out of favor for awhile but must be making a comeback because they now repop them. crager i think. i have always loved them. i was 8 when my dad bought a set for $80. i still have them. plus another set for my 60.

I'd definately be interested in the 10" wide with the 5 on 5 1/2 pattern.
I'm running 7" wide all around on my truck and having some 10's on the rear would be fantastic.
I've always loved slotted mags

Man... I have old-style slots on just about everything I own! A set of 15x8s on the '56 as well as my '76 F100 and I have a set on my '74 Duster and '67 Ranchero. I also have 10-20 slotted wheels int he shed as well as 4-6 NOS slot mags i scored off of eBay. You can say i'm a bit of a SLOT MAG JUNKIE! 
That being said... if these need a new home, be sure and PM me!
