Halibrand is an American maker of racing wheels and quick-change
rearend housings.[2]
Halibrand started in
Culver City, California in 1946. Its first product was a
magnesium wheel for
Indy cars, as a replacement for the wire wheels then commonplace. The slotted design favored by hot rodders is based on a
sprint car design from the 1950s.[3]
