Im pretty sure they are expensive. But a killer looking wheel. I think they are American Racing wheels, look them up.

17X8s are about $270 a piece. At least that is what I paid for mine.

500 Bucks, You got lucky. Mine were about 300 each. I had to get them with a 5.5 in back spacing so I could get 17X9.5 w/275/40/17 all around.

Thank You for the compliment. I have been waiting for some sunshine here in Germany so I can put them back on and get some pix.

if you dont want to pay that much then just get you a jegs catlog or go to their web site and get the Cragar ones they are $200.00 each. they are not AR's but the same style and alot cheaper.

as far as the AR TT IIs you can get some of the sizes at www.jegs.com or www.summitracing.com but http://www.salesco.com/wheels/amerra...q_thrust_2.htm offers all of the sizes. (jegs and summit dont offer the 17x11 in wheels, which...of course...is what i want for the back)

I agree with 88_RS&86_Z-28, you can go onto jegs and summit and get the Cragar S/S Super Sport wheels....they are the same basic design, but look no where as good as the TT IIs IMO.

hope this helps
