Need Advice on Wheels
I need to find a set of 17 x9.5 wheels for a 91 Z/28.
The car will be used for road racing only and will use a 275 40 17 tire on all corners.
I am not so intested in looks as I am function.
The wheels need to be light weight and rotatable front to rear.
The car has Baer Brakes front and rear and I think the front offset is now different as this would be similar to a 1 le car.
Where do I find such a wheel. I have had no luck on previous searches.

Call John. Tell him Karl Hunter referred you. He has been making wheels for us for years. Top quality. Very strong. Lightweight. 3-piece with forged center. I could go on. Oh yeah - and cheaper than the 2 piece circle wheels that can't be taken apart.
