IIRC those wheels are 18's or 19's. Maybe they were 18's front, 19's rear... I forget.... I remember that car was from Germany or something like that.

The wheels are BBS. Look on www.tirerack.com for a set.

swede... what kind of backspacing did you use? and i am noticing that both you and the norweigan fellow do not have the centercaps on the front wheel.. do they just not fit? would you say that the 18's with the camaro/firebird lowered, oh, say and inch would fill out the wells a little better?...
i dunno what to say, im hooked on these wheels..

p.s.- nice ride swede, its swwweeeet
