pics of Torque Thrust II's on a third gen Camaro?

I have been debating since I got my '91 Z over which rims to put on it. I was wondering if someone had a pic of a third gen Camaro with 17 inch Torque Thrust II rims. Do they fit a Camaro without any spacers? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks guys,
Those are 17"x9.5"s with 275/40's all around.
They were $312/ea shipped if I remember correctly. Thats $50/ea extra due to a special order backspacing. If you go with one of the standard backspacings they were $247/ea from www.hotrodsusa.com - which I HIGHLY recommend. They are awesome to deal with.

I was thinkin about going with the edlebrock 409 17x8's and they fit the shape and lines of our cars a little bit better IMHO heres a link for ya: http://www.edelbrockwheels.com/wheel....asp?wheel=409 I think they would look pretty bad @$$ on our 3rd gen cars

I don't know ahout those, I would need to see them on the car. TTII tho, OMG they....beyond words, I have always wanted them for my black IROC. how much are spacers if I go with the $242 wheels. I am spending this summer getting a new 350 in the car, basically returning it to a "stock" L98 Iroc. I mean I have two different seats in there, IROC rears with all black NightRider fronts(anyone interested, MINT condition). I plan on swaping them for 4th gen gray/black ones. Painting the hood, nose and rear bumper, fixing ng the rear ash tray, recharging the AC, replacing the rear speakers, a Grant steering wheel and a gauge pod with Air/Fuel and Electronic Fuel PSI so I have the gauges when I install the AFPR and when I slap on the RamJet next summer. Got to work my ars off with my excavating job ($60-75 a day)

those edelbrock wheels appeared on the red formula350 CarCraft's building. They look so incredibly sick...

MY vote's for the 454 in chrome/lustre finish. Like Eleanor's in "60 Seconds"

Damn that is one mustang I could handle driving. It had to have one of the sweetest sounding exhausts i have ever heard.
