Vortec Z wheels.....have you seen them?
In the current issue of Chevy High Performance there is an ad by performance wheel outlet and they have a new wheel called Vortec Z. They say it fits '67 to 2001 camaros, but on their website they don't have any pics. Also did anyone see the wheels on that red conv Malibu in the same issue. Those wheels are awesome but I can't seem to find anyone who sells them. In the article it says they are "Vista Wheels" Where can I get these?

I agree,
I really like the snypers but when I saw these wheels I changed my mind. Does anyone out there have pics of these on a third gen?

Screw pics on a thirdgen, I dont care what they are on! I also like the TT II's, and Snypers, so I am guessing I'll like these too. Can someone scan these in and post them? If you dont know how to post, email them to me and I'll do it. Thanks!
The Vortec Z wheel is a 2000 Mustang Cobra R wheel with chevy bolt circle and 3rd gen BS .

I noticed that as well, however it is not a true cobra R wheel and resembles the skinny 5 spoke vette design if anything. The true cobra R wheel has a slight groove down each of the spokes. Oh the possibilities!!!

i dont really care if they are from a 1979 pinto, they look a hell of lot better than most 5 spoke rims i see around today, so what if they are a renditon from ford? they look good.....thats all that matters
Im interested in the "vista" style wheels also. I think their bad as s**t. Their made by a CA company called Intro and can be found at www.introwheels.com, heres a pic.

I have that picture on my wall. Chevy High Performance made a poster out of it. That is one georgeous Malibu. *drools*, its nicer than the 911 Turbo, the S7, the F50, or the Various viper posters on my wall.

if you people like that particular rim, pick up any sport truck type magazine and there is about 3 million billet wheel manufactorers out there that make rims almost exactly like those....not very original!
