that has 17x9.5 all the way around w/275/40s....it would fit your 82, depending on what wheels you get.. i have the 4th gen wheels and also a 4th gen rear, therefore i needed no adapter in the back

I have a friend that runs a wheel shop, I have not seen these wheels for sale anymore so good luck if you can find them. I paid almost twice on rubber compared to the wheels!

I got mine from Summit. I searched all over the net to find the lowest price and then called them. They beat the price by $1.00 and were much cheaper shipping wise. I can't remember the price exactly now though. This is an old pic, maybe I'll get more recent ones this weekend.

LBSZ28BLOWN,
THAT IS AWESOME DUDE I am loving the 17x11 rims with 315's I am thinking of something like that for my car as well. What all is involved in sticking that wide of a tire in the rear of the car?

I am running 255/40-17 on the front and 275/40-17 on the rear for now. i will be moving the 275s to the front and putting 285/40-17s on the rear..... Until I get my new wheels
18x10 on the rear and 18x9 on the front

then my car will look like this

Axoid, those wheels look great. Do you mind sharing more details? Maybe cost and where you got them? Also, did they come with the black spokes or did you have that done? They look sweet!
