I want to see your custom wheels that don't require spacers. If you got any for sale... Let me know also.

I need something bigger than my old snowflake wheels, my brakes are too big for them now...

Let me see your 5 spokes, especially snipers.

thanks

i think you mean aftermarket not custom. Custom wheels are made to order and you never need spacers because they do the offset/backspacing everything custom for your application. They also run around 2000 a set of 17's 2500 for 18's

Ohhh. Okay then. Please post whatever trick rims you have that I can actually afford without having to sell the car that they are going on.


( Um yeah.... No I just want one wheel now and in a couple of months I can order another. Hello? Mr. Boyd? Damn it! )

look at the sig, it shows 17 inch rims that were custom made by colorado custom. www.coloradocustom.com

they are five spoke called lazears- in my opinion, they look bad a$$!

i will be selling them as soon as i find a buyer... i was thinkin $2000 for the wheels and the tires. (wheels cost $2000 alone)
has kuhmo ecsta supra tires on them 235/40/17 front and 275/40/17 rear.

19doug90 - Those prices seem a little high. I have centerline
matrix wheels that were custom made with the backspacing I
wanted (17x8, 4.5" BS and 17x9.5, 5.5" BS) and they only cost
me $1100. I know that alot of other manufacturers product
billet two piece wheels with the backspacing you want for
similar prices weld, boyd, eagle. However, there are limits to the
sizes and backspacings you can get, but if you are looking for
sizes like mine than they are easy to come by.

Here are some pictures of my wheels.

I noticed that you looked into Boyd wheels, but were not happy with the price. I know that this site carries them and the prices
seem very reasonable.

I hope this helps and good luck finding a set of wheels you like.

It seems like every distributor has better prices than buying direct from the manufacturer. Probably, because they buy a large volume at a big discount then sell at an increased price that is still cheaper than ordering straight from the manufacturer for one set.

I like the second ones, I always like the Boyd Tuned wheels. CrazyHawaiian has pics of his car with those wheels in the 18" version on here, so you can get a better idea of what the look like. I think that they will look good on a trans-am.

question: ROH ZS's--spacers or no?

No. You can get the ZS's in different backspacings. You can get them to fit third gens, fourth gens, and I've even seen them on an sn95 stang.

anyone got em on a 91-92 formula?

Next to the Ronals, those would be my option.

Unless we get into stuff like the boyds and whatnot.

boyd has a good contract with discount tire that has prices lower then that truck site.

you get what you pay for in a custom wheel. it isn't hard to spend 7-800 a piece for a real nice 2-3 piece billet wheel. of course this is if you go larger with 18+. they just don't look right to me though anything smaller then 17.
