Yes...I got an e-mail this morning and the person put me in the right direction. I went back to the computer and did more digging. I found they came on the CMX package of the Mirada ONLY !. I was mistaken. I saw a picture from Dodge and saw the Volare /duster with those wheels. I did alot of research tring to find those wheel and that was the only car I found that had them. I don't know if the 1980 Mirada CMX was the only year for those wheels but they are the only car package with them. Thank you for all the info. I am still learning ......As far as 5x7 I did not find any mark on the back .

My 1982 Mirada has the same wheels as well. The area around the spokes seems to be somewhat darker on my set, but for all intents and purposes, the same wheels. Mine are 15"X 7"

That, my friend, is a "Kelsey-Hayes" wheel, manufactured for Chrysler. That wheel was used on several cars: J-Body Cordoba's, 80 and 81 LeBaron Coupes, Dodge Miradas, and the 80 and 81 Diplomat Coupe. (I've seen them on Dodge Vans, too, but i don't know if it was a factory option.) They pop on eBay now and then -- I just bought a set brand new, they are stunners.

And, not to be a douche- $800 is going to be a heckuva push. Besides the crap economy and Christmas (post-Christmas spending remorse for those w/o self-control), they would have to be perfect with good rubber on them for $800. I sold/traded a nice West Coast set to a buddy for $250 and some parts. Just saying

A set of NOS ones w/o caps were $600 off Egag a couple months ago.
I got 2 sets for $125 set with caps.

Since I am learning I do alot of reserch....The "Kelsey -Hayes" wheel was a spoke wheel and yes it was on the Cordobo as a wheel cover . The Labaron had a 5 spoke wheel ( Coupe ) and the Diplomat did as well. I called Crysler to check my findings and I am correct . Those wheels I am selling were ONLY put on a CMX Mirada when they came from factory . As far as selling them for $800.00 we can talk about that more if you e-mail me .
