2001goldGTP Posted February 21, 2013 Report Posted February 21, 2013 So i have the pie wheels on my international and they need to be refinished. Anyone know where i can buy the "oldsmobile" decals that are on the rim? thanks Quote
White93z34 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Posted February 21, 2013 Probably something you'll have to get custom done. vinyl stickers would do the job nicely just measure up the size get the font made and get a vinyl cutter to do them up in the colour of your choosing. Quote
Galaxie500XL Posted February 21, 2013 Report Posted February 21, 2013 Or, take a good pic, and have a stencil made...and paint "Oldsmobile" on the wheel... You might even make a buck or two on the half-dozen people that might redo some of those wheels...not to mention, IIRC, not all the pie wheels got "Oldsmobile" put on them, so you might find an interest in someone else doing that to theirs... Probably something you'll have to get custom done. vinyl stickers would do the job nicely just measure up the size get the font made and get a vinyl cutter to do them up in the colour of your choosing.

Disbass69 Posted February 21, 2013 Report Posted February 21, 2013 Have Tearstone make you a set of decals Sent from my HTCEVOV4G using Tapatalk 2 Quote
2001goldGTP Posted February 21, 2013 Author Report Posted February 21, 2013 Thanks for the input. Also, does does anyone have an up close good pic of the indy500 pie wheels? Quote
pshojo Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 send him a center cap and have him make duplicate stickers. I did something similar. Quote
pshojo Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 Is this what you are looking for? Quote
RobertISaar Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 if i had to name someone who might have better pics, it would probably be Ken or Jay. Quote
j_mezz Posted February 22, 2013 Report Posted February 22, 2013 I had a couple of Olds Xlaces refinished by phoenix wheels, they did a nice job. I know they would refinish pie wheels and they might be able to put the 'Oldsmobile' back on them for you. I thought the pie wheels on the actual pace cars were the same except the inserts were painted black (or body-color)? And I thought the 'parade cars' came with either regular pie wheels or the xlaces...? My coupe came with the Xlaces, which is the car I had the wheels refinished for. Quote
2001goldGTP Posted February 22, 2013 Author Report Posted February 22, 2013 Im looking for the black ones, im thinking of going that route, and i will take a pic of the oldsmoble lettering with a ruler and email some people, thanks for the pics i forgot how good these wheels can look compared to mine.

2001goldGTP Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Posted February 25, 2013 This is the decal im looking for Quote
pshojo Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 By the way, i just like the look of the moldings of the International 4 doors. The smooth simplicity and the red strip that wasn't just pin stripping. This really looks nice on black cars. Quote
2001goldGTP Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Posted March 21, 2013 Does anyone have good pics of the pie wheels new that i can show the guy to refinish them? Only one have good pics of the pice indy 500 wheels? I was interested in having mine done like the pace cars with the black on them. Thanks Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Posted April 13, 2013 I got some NOS Pie Wheels, give me a minute bro... Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Posted April 13, 2013 My new frikkin I phone is freaking out...will post PICS when I can. Quote
intern8tion9l Posted April 18, 2013 Report Posted April 18, 2013 I painted my inserts black back in the day. No likey Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Posted April 18, 2013 Nevermind, Mine are all Silver. I do need to get mine painted exactly like the Pace car wheels though! Let me know the progress, I may follow suite! Quote
virtuetovice Posted April 21, 2013 Report Posted April 21, 2013 As far as I've seen these aren't decals, they're screenprint. Quote
1988PhantomFE3 Posted June 14, 2013 Report Posted June 14, 2013 WOW! My wheels are not NOS, and they don't have any OLDSMOBILE dacals or emblems anywhere... I just got some NOS Center caps for the wheels, but those are all silver too. Maybe I should put some Indy 500 Logo's in there....NAHW!!! Does anyone make the Decals like GoldGTP wanted? Quote
2001goldGTP Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Posted June 17, 2013 I will be emailing someone for help, reflective concepts has done some work for me in the past that was awesome, so I will see what i can do with that. Also, anyone have NOS pie wheels they would be willing to sell? Quote
