I want to get some 17 inch IROC wheels for my car fairly soon. I know a few years back a place called Performance wheel outlet made them in the stock style. Now all I can find are chrome wheels.

Does anyone still make the 17's in the stock style? I really do not want chrome wheels.

 

I don't have a answer for you, but I am really interested in this too. I'm going to try to get ahold of the manufactorer because I'd like to get them bare and a combo of 17 and 18s. I also want something bigger than 8in deep, but don't think they will do that.

 

yes they do make them. there is a guy with a black iroc convertible (with one seat) that has bigger than stock iroc wheels that arent chrome.

 

I too am looking for iroc rims with out chrome I just don't care for the look of the chrome, I remember somebody on here bought the chrome ones, and then I think had them stripped

 

ive spent like 15 minutes searching and i think the guy with the 17+ inch irocs is named "MrDude_1"... not 100% sure though. i cant find **** for pics of his car and he changed his sig so i dont know...

i just noticed he has a 91 camaro so i dont think thats him

 

i think you're thinking of Mr Irocz......

he had a black iroc with some oversized rims and racing seats.... very clean looking vert.

 

I think this is what you guys are looking for , I just had some picture from way back,

 

Yeah thats Mr IROC-Z.. he got them from performance wheel outlet years ago. Thats the only place I've seen them, and not it looks like they are out of business.

 

Send a PM to Jim85IROC He mods the Electronics forum, and I think he's a distributor for aftermarket Iroc wheels.

 

i knew it was Mr. something!! lol i feel like such an idiot

 

here we go! Mr IROCZ https://home.comcast.net/~ariesboy/

 

Bump any one know of a place still?

 

No.

 

I remember asking mr iroc-z about those rims in 2008 cause i wanted a set. he said they where the 18 inch chrome replicas that he had sanded and powder coated if i remember correctly. its been years since so dont qoute me. but i do remember talking to him about them

 

Yep, buy chrome ones, strip and paint.

 

Hey guys, actually the rims came polished, but I re-polished them and painted them. There is a company on Ebay that is selling the 18's in 'machined' finish:

I ordered a set from west coast wheel factory in CA last Friday. I should have them this week and I'll put up pics then. Only downside is they are 8.5 wide.

 

Are those 18"S in that ebay pic? They look awful! Looks More like a 20" in terms of the spokes.

 

Because it is a bigger inch wheel. If you look at their other listings, it's all the same picture from a 17-26 inch.

 

I know its bigger.

I ahve seen a lot of 17" and 18" Irocs on cars here and they look great. Then you see the 20" 22" and 24" and the look stupid.

I'm guessing thats a 20" or bigger in the photo on ebay. I'd order a set of 18" if the look right, but not if they look like that.

 

Look at MR. IROC-Z wheels and how thick the spokes are in relation to the holes, then look at the spokes on the ebay ad.

 

I was skeptical at first but then i looked at all of the other iroc replicas out there (in chrome) from various manufacturers. As the wheel diameter increases, the spoke width does not.

This is closer to what the wheel should look like.



Either way, we'll see when I receive them. They shipped today and I'll hopefully see them friday or saturday.

 

i was close!!. i knew it had something to do with paint and or powder coat! thanks for clearing it up mr iroc

 

I'd like to see how the 18" wheels look also.

 

Yep, can't wait to see! May have to put my 18" hypermesh wheels up for sale!

 

Fingers crossed. I may have to work a bit to get the stance in my sig pic, but i'll do what it takes.

 

Got my wheels today. I started a post here. https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/whee...nt-fed-ex.html

Measuring the spokes, they are 4in wide at the center and 3 in wide at the lip. In person they do not look disproportionate, there is black material outside of the machined area. It doesn't show up well in pictures.

I'd like somebody to measure their oem wheels for spoke width. I'd even be curious on width for other 18 inch replicas.

 

I wish they made 17s...

 

Here you are please, i do not know, where he found 17" IROCs.

I can not find it... (((((

 

Those look like they may have been plasti-dipped or something equivalent.....
