17" or 18" wheels / rims wanted for 91 Firebird

Hi all!

I really want a new set of rims for my car. I'd like either 17 or 18 inch rims and I would want them to fit without any spacers.

I really like the ROH RTs
I also like the year one wheels but they're way too expensive it seems
I like the ROH Snypers too
The new GTA rims Hawks started to sell are also nice!
Anything that will look good on a black base firebird and isn't too expensive.

Anyone have any wheels like these they'd be able to sell me ?

Thank you!

I have a set of these 17s looking for a home. Good tires on 2. One has some curb rash but I'm selling them for pretty cheap. Came off our 88 Formula, had no fitment issues nor spacers needed. PM me if interested. Orange County

Hi there! Thanks for the offer! Unfortunately, the torq thrust type rims aren't personally one of my favorite types of rims for our cars. Very nice Firebird though!

ROH Snipers - aftermarket wheels made for 3rd gens. Originally all were 17 X 9 but the rears were sent to Wheels of America and for $1000, 2" were added and powder coated. Tires are old but still have tread. Size 275/40/17 front and 315/35/17 rear.
$550 Firm. No shipping for now, waiting to see if they sell local. Worth a road trip maybe?

You can get them 17" at Hawks. They're 270$ a piece though. Yeah I checked the listing and it wasn't up anymore.

Gosh. For that price I’ll likely rather go with the ones I really want... since this thread hasn’t been succeful I think I’m going to just end up caving in and going with the new 17” Snowflakes at year one.
