Iroc wheel & tire package?

Who sells the Iroc rims? I have seen a link here before but can not find it now. I would like to find them in a wheel and tire package. I am going to buy new rims tomorrow and I wanted to check the prices on the Iroc rims before I pick up a set of the ZR1 replicas.

edit: oops, this should have been in the Vendor review topic I think.

I don't think they sell wheel/tire combinations, but..

You can buy new 85-87 style IROC wheels here:

ouch! They are a little pricey! I can get the ZR1 replicas w/ 275/40/ZR17 tires for under $1000. They want $800 just for the rims!

They are expensive, yes..

A set (4) of chrome IROC wheels is $800..

Personally, I prefer the polished look, and you can get a set of polished IROC wheels for about $680..

You also should take into account that the IROC wheels are 16" (although you can get them in 17" & 18") and the ZR1s are 17" wheels.. meaning you'll need spacers ($250+) to mount them properly on your car (assuming we're talkin about a 3rdGen)..

So actually, it sounds like it'd be cheaper for you to go with the IROCs..

This all depends on what you want out of your new wheels though..

My husband & I bought Z06 rims w/ brand new rubber on them for $1600 this last summer We looked every where for this deal. Not even the Chevy dealership that was going to sell us Just the rims for wholesale could give us that kind of deal.
