Has anyone seen or have pics of a 3rd gen with 17" cragar SS' on them. I think those would look great but I'm not %100 sold. I have looked all over the web and can't find a thing. I could photoshop it but I would like to see the real deal.

go to les swab they have that computer there its not real but reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally damn close and they look bad *** but not as good as thorque thursts.

Forgive me for my ingnorance but I have no idea what Les Swab is. I searched the net and this site and I can't locate it.

sorry but i didn't know you lived in kentuckey i think they only do the north west.. Les Schwab thats the correct name sorry about that.

get me your email and I'll send you some more pics

Oh man that is sweet! I am definatley sold on those! E-mail me some more shots. davidshera@yahoo.com. Thanks!

The rear 17x9's 5x4.75 bolt pattern, 5.5" back spacing rims might be for sale if your interested, Let me know. I hope the pictures help ~DaVe

yeah thats pretty cool post a couple more... i dont' have e-mail. thanks!!!

I know you said no photoshop, but I couldn't resist letting everyone know about this cool wheel simulator on pepboys.com. It is pretty fun to play with and there are a few f-bods on there too...

here's my 84 Ta on 17" cragars..

those last rims just dont look right , id be dissapointed if i got them , they are 17s but they look like 14 with a larger trim ring around the outside. i know this isnt an opition post but the just dont look right .

Yea something definitely looks wierd there...

Man those do look weird! I was really liking the look of those after seeing the first pics of them. But man, those last ones look cheap! Like you said, looks loke a 14" center welded into a bigger rim. Kind of likw how the 17" rallys look. Same center, bigger lip.

16s....

17s cant look much bigger, i loved these rims and they are still alright but my car would look a lot better in some 17" TT2s...

those dont look like 17s...

the american racing thorque thrust 2's are badass i wanna get them.

they're a 15" base with a 17" trim on them, they look weird but I like them

How do you know if your getting a 17 or a 14 with a 17 center, if you where to order them? I never see them listed like that, only in the size.

But wait, there's more.

[VU]Juan's car seems to have custom made Cragars. They are not available like that to my knowledge, and I researched these things for a long time before I bought mine.

BumpaD82's car has the standard 17" Cragar S/S wheels. They have chrome steel rims with chromed aluminum centers (like the original Cragar S/S's)

On my '66 Caprice, I have 17" Cragar FORGED S/S wheels. They are one-piece forged aluminum and they look a little different than the ones Bumpa has. They're actually made by Weld. Here's a pic of one of my rears- 17x8 with 4.5" bs:

Edit- oh yeah, they have a soft lip too (rounded edge near the tire). It looks cool but you can't get your car aligned with these wheels because they can't hang the alignment heads on them.

oh ya another thing...these wheels weight a ton! and blow for balancing...they wont balance worth ****.

Static balance...good luck
normal balance...even still good luck

Not the case with the Forged S/S.

Different strokes for different folks mine are static blanced (weight on the backside) on a Hunter 9000 with one weight per wheel

I cant find that wheel simulator on pepboys....where is it on the site?
