Man, that looks like fun! Do you have anymore pics?

 

What size were your torq thrusts? Those look BA

 

Those were 17x9.5 5.5 inch offset all around. They didnt fit my brake upgrade so i had to part with them

 

CTS-V/Z06 brakes?

 

In 2003 i upgraded to the Baer AlconPro4. Its basically the older version of the current Baer Track4. It just has really fat calipers and american racing wouldnt make me a set to clear my calipers so i bought the Intro Pentia's. They will basically build a wheel to your specifications. Really awesome service and products.

 

i dunno if its been posted already my comps to slow to look through all 30something pages but has anyone seen the new camaro(SS i think) wheels put on an iroc i saw it on another fbody site ill see if i can find the link but dam they look good

 

found the link http://www.vancouverfbody.com/forums...ad.php?t=25529

 

yea someone on here has a thread going on it already its somewhere in the wheel thread

 

Ya Intro makes some amazing wheels. We have used alot of their wheels on some of our shop cars in the past. I have run into a similar issue on mine. I am thinking about upgrading to the CTS-V/Z06 14"/6-piston caliper setup but even with my 18's, the design of the spokes will interfere and I'll need a spacer. The wheels are about flush as it is now and looks perfect so I don't want to really do that and I also don't want new wheels lol. Might just go with the C5 13" upgrade

 

lol yea i dont like the idea of running spacers. Just makes me think of those youtube vids where guys are drifting and the wheels go flying off. I saw one where literally all 4 wheels came off 5 seconds into his run. Hilarious but i felt for him even though it was a RX7.

 

Ya I feel ya. I'm gonna be running a small spacer up front for my drag wheels but I'm not too worried about that. It's so they aren't tucked up super far in the fender lol.

 

i think these wheels are sick

 

x2, they look awesome on that formy

 

 

look at that wide lip oh man i love it

 

Just found my new desktop background.

 

i also have the crager soft 8s in 17x8 front and 17x9 rears and at first i was like eh after taking off my boyds but they have really grown on me

 

I'm having a real dilemma deciding what to do about the wheels on my car. I have an opportunity to move to IROC wheels for $100, plus the cost of tires obviously.

Not sure if they are right for my car, there's something I love about the base wheels, but it sounds like too good an opportunity to pass up

please check out this thread and vote on my poll, I have to make my mind up fast

I like my TTII's

 

Go for it mark. You can always sell them to me if you dont want them. lol

 

Is this in a giant doctors office? Car looks great!

 

Sweet!

Here's another pic of mine:

 

For some inexpensive rims (that I just happened to buy for $250 off Craigslist) are the Ronal R9's -- especially if you get them custom painted to match the body color!

They're usually a 16x8 and 5x4.75 bolt, but because of the chrome lip it makes them seem much smaller. Not for everyone, but damn they look niice!

 

lol i think is machine shop? or a factory?

 

nice! i have a blue 92 rs too

 

purple, those tires and rims are nasty, i have an 86 sport and need to know how to get them to look like that. did you use spacers to fit the 295?

 

i think the z06's are amazing here's mine

Josh006,

What's hapening with the red one peeking out of the garage?

 

It's a highly optioned 85 z28. It's got some title issues, great shape though.383 stroker 700r4 trying to part with it or sell her.

 

I like stock but in a bigger rim size with wider tires.

Just a shame the larger IROC wheels are still only 8 inches wide.

 

Just buy what wheel you want & get them widened. That is how I got 11" ROH Snypers.

 

How much did it cost you and where did you get it done? Will the strength of the wheel not be compromised?

 

I used the Dallas, TX branch of http://www.wheelsamerica.com

IIRC, it was $100 for the powdercoating & $300 for widening 1"-3" (i went with 2")....PER WHEEL. So $600 for just widening for 2 wheels.

I have no fear of the wheel strength being compromised. In actual tests I've seen, the weld seam was stronger than the material (steel bar) & the material fails in breaking outside the weld seam. I don't see how aluminum (the wheel) could be any different.

 

Thanks for the info Stephen.

 

Does anyone know what this members name is? I would like to ask him a few questions on his setup. Thanks
