I want to get 17x9.5" and 17x11" wheels for my IROC, but I can't find any that look good on a thirdgen. Does anyone have any pics of their wheels?

 

see sig for specs

 

woops here's the sig

 

17x9.5, all four wheels.

What is the widest tire you can fit on a 8? 9? 9.5? inch rim? I want some 275's

 

Basett Racing's car..





Wheels/Tires:
SEC Racing Wheels w/ Michelin Pilots
Front: 17 X 9.5, P275/40/ZR17
Rear: 17 X 12, 335/35/ZR17

 

I have 275 on my 9.5's. I wouldnt go over a 285 with them.

 

Go with the 17" Iroc rims.

 

I know some ppl with 17x11 torque thrust on there thirdgen. I think they ran like a 315 or something like that. Thats on the rear though.

 

ShiftyCapone- I like those wheels, who makes them?

I desperately want to keep the IROC wheels, but I need wider wheels for more traction once me and LottaBalls put our new engine in next year.

 

Oh, nevermind, I found them. ROH snypers. I like the way those look, but they don't come wider than a 9", it looks like. I definitely want at least a 10" in the rear.

 

You can put 275s on an 8 inch rim. Most of them only require 7.5s.

Hey ShiftyCapone.......how bout somemore pics of your car....with your Snypers! They look really good on there.....I'd like to see some more pics!

 

84customZ28,

Here ya go

Does anyone have any 11" wide wheels that aren't Vette wheels? I like the ZR1s, but I would like to see others too.

 

Tara, you aren't going to fit 11 inch wheels on your stock IROC at 17inches! Save your cash and build the engine!

Get rims and wheels later

 

Mike - All this will be done next year, at the same time. We're also lowering it and throwing a bunch of suspension parts on there. I can't ride around with a 500hp engine on 8" wide wheels, now can I?

 

I think CarnDriver might have had 11s on his Boyd Coddingtons

 

Time to bust out the sledge hammer....

 

What do you mean?

 

Your going to have to roll the lip, and do a little bending to get it to fit....


They dont just plop on, and work...

 

So what is the widest rim you can put on with no modifications?

 

I believe 10 is it. And that would be pushing it.

 

If you have your car lowered, 11" won't fit without mods, if it isn't lowered, then probably it will.

Maybe I could borrow a friend of mines 17x11 GS wheels and see how it fits on my car. I've got the 17x9.5 OZ's on mine right now,


here is the Firehawk 17x9.5 wheels on my friends 82 T/A,

 

Zepher, thanks. We are lowering it slightly, like a 1-1 1/2".

 

")

 

1991 Z-28 what rims are those?

 

Those look like Y2K Vette wheels. Those are what I want but can't afford.

 

roh has some new wheels comming out this year that are trick. i saw them at SEMA last week

 

ATTN. MRlotsaballs Roh snypers come wider than 9" i was gonna buy a set of 17x9.5's off a friend of mine but the back spacing was wrong and ive heard they can come up to 18x10's Just a little info for you

 

I want the 10 Spoke SS

I dont think they are *****

 

 

Dont look ***** to me....

 

Thanks dude!

 

Those SS wheels look pretty sweet! They look better than I thought they would on a thirdgen. I saw on some website that the ROH Snypers didn't come bigger than a 9". Maybe I'm wrong, though.

 

I know u can get 17x9.5's ive seen them ive mounted them (well the rear ones) i almost bought them the 18x10's i dont really know about i was just told they come that big but im not sure

 

i like my snipers

 

ausrs, I luv that color!

And, yes, the Snipers look badass on your car!
