17" or 18" GTA rims

I know I saw something about thios posted somewhere but can't remember. I'd really like to know if someone makes reproduction GTA rims in larger diameters just like it has been done with the IROC-Z wheels. Some aftermarket wheels that look very alike, perhaps?

I have seen some 17 or 18 red gta wheels a while back on one of the posts but I can't remember where. Just give it time maybe somebody will find them or actually have them. But, somebody does or did make them.

I do remember those red GTA wheels. Those were 17". If anyone knows please let me know. I photoshopped my car with larger wheels and a lowered height and it looks so much better.

There's a set on the classifieds right now. 17x8.5 and 17x9.5. Guy wants $1000 bucks for them which really isn't a bad deal considering how much they probably cost new.

All I know is the are made by Epsilon or are called Epsilon by an unknown company. Made in Japan, and were a popular add on to C4 vettes in the late 80's or early 90's, usually matched to the color of the car.

Good luck,

Kevin D.
