Hot Wheels...Are these even available anymore???

Hi everyone...I am in the process of getting new wheels for my 92 z28. I wish to *** that someone out there made the same wheels I have on there in 17 inch and in chrome similiar to the IROC wheels that come in 16-17 and even 18 inch.

I have a little puzzle on my hands...I recently got a book and the wheels that this camaro had are the only other set of wheels that I think look hot on the car. Anyone ever seen these for sale anywhere? I think they are NRG but I am not at home right now so I can't confirm that...Imaging these wheels in chrome and 17inch....wow that would be hot!

any thoughts?

Those are the 3rd gen. Firehawk wheels in the pic originally made by Ronal. Ronal did start making them again last year or the year before IIRC. If you do search you should find a thread discussing them.

well your right...seems like your a few months short there. i did a quick search and didn't find much. i'm sure they are out there though as they did bring them back for a short period.

I have a set of Prime rims that look exactly like that. They were on the car when I bought it so I don't know model number or name. I also believe Prime is no longer around. HTH
