Lets see some big dished wheels on some thirdgens...


I should have these (but on a thirdgen) mounted tomorrow.

 

 

Whats the specs on your rear wheels?

Width and Offset?

Thanks!

 

CamarosRUS - those sir, are some sick looking rims!

 

Rear wheels are 19x9.5 with 35mm offset. If the backspacing was correct for the car it would have some serious dish.

Tires are Dunlop SP Sport 9000 285/30.

Thanks!

 

Looks awesome!

 

those are some great looking wheels, who makes them?

 

I don't remember the parent brand off hand but they are Sportmax Racing model 962.

 

wow I love those rims

 

xxr 962's they used to be sportmax but have since changed.

I'm planning on running the 962's but the 18's 8.5 front and 9.5 rear


And this just made me die. I can not wait.


amazing car love it.

 

Thanks, can't go wrong with a 5 spoke. Mine happen to still be Sportmax....

 

Gonna see if I can find me some of those for my white IROC. Those are awesome looking.

They have them in gold too whoooweee!! I want these

 

One thing...I had a set on my Jetta and after about a year the clear coat on the polished lip started to flake off. No apparent reason, I never used anything but soap and water to clean them. Just cheap rims (and heavy!) but good looking!

 

 

I have the same rims. What spacers are you useing?

 

Very sexy, Tony!!



I'm pretty sure they are about 1 1/4". I actually got extremely lucky and was able to use the old spacers for my old rims. Worked perfectly, unlike anything else on that entire car!

 

Those specs can't be for your rear wheels. I'm 100% sure on that. Are they MINUS 35mm?

I had 9" rear with 0 offset, so they shoulda been deeper than those, but they weren't.

If you shop around abit you can find them alittle cheaper on the shipping sometimes. Not to long ago there was a sale going on for xxr rims.

 

Because you posted that link, I assume you are saying that because those show +34, so are yours?

Well, yours aren't. Minus 34 maybe, but not Plus 34.

Corvette wheels are Plus offsets & they don't have dishes, so how can yours be Plus? I see the really thin hub, unlike the thick of of Corvette wheels, which gives you the dish.

Yours are Minus, not Plus.

I went through WAY too much trouble to understand backspacing & offset, to turn my 9" wheels into 11" wheels that would fit..

 

 

i've got the roh zs racing 17*8.5" -7mm offset. 275/40/17 all the way around. stock height.

 

American Racing AR-23's

 

cool car
do you think I could come have a look? ...I am local ...Will

need to take a pic of the SLP Ronal Firehawks for ya

 

nice wheels man

 

Sorry for the delay man! Come spring you can definitely come take a look sometime. Shes not much but I always love talking thirdgen!

 

My cars with Dish. About to flip flop rims though.

 

My car came from the factory with deep dish wheels

 

Dished yes. But I'd hardly call front crosslace wheels "deep". And the rears are even less deep.

 

Hey Grifter, nice setup! Anymore pics of the car with Ronal's?

 

Thanks I appreciate it, lets just say I have a loving wife . anyway dont have any more pics of the teal car at this time. Finishing up a 408 LSx motor for it and then just need to source the rest of the parts for that swap. Also gotta replace the door as it has a huge dent. Car has full susp and a mild 350TPI in it. The IROC well thats a diffrent story...

 

I'll see your dish and raise you (although this is not one of my F bodies )

 

Fair enough. Had pizza on my mind when I wrote that.

 

NICE!

 

And the nicer thing is, I have 8 of those wheels and a collection of rim halves to alter widths & backspacing. I'm thinking about putting the other set on my 82 trans am (a little less wide than those 13" wide ones) and slapping on some Mickey Thompson Drag Radials, they are 16" wheels. Should look period correct and w/ gold centers on the black gold car.... I'm hoping I can pull it off.

 

Can anyone photoshop this car with the grey rims camry silver or charcoal grey
