Get ZR1's To Fit

What all do I need to purchase to get a set of 17"x9 1/2" Zr1 wheels to fit a 1990 T/A? And how much will this cost me?

You will need wheel spacers/adapters.

www.skulte.com sells them. They will cost roughly $300.

You'll need 2.25" up front and 1.25" in the rear. I put together a wheel sizing FAQ at http://www.skulte.com/adapterfaq.html. I hope it helps.

Not really.

They need to be VERY strong, and that makes them expensive.
