All right I've been looking around for a while and cant find wheels that look just right. I've got C5 ZR1 wheels on it now (17x9 and 17x11's) But i'll be putting some power to the ground and don't trust adapters going 10's. Yes I have searched... All the good looking ones require an adapter..Right? I'd like to stay 17" 0r 18". wanna stay with the 315 tire in the back. The car is red with hertitage stripes. HELP.

These have the +36 mm offset, so if you have a stock-width third gen rear axle, then these can be used without adapters. You will have to use the same lower control arms and wheelwell mods as Stephen, but most ZR1 17x11s are a +50 mm offset, and those do require 1/2" spacers.

 

Been looking for non 5 spoke rims myself. Found a couple guys that have custom rims but they cost. BOZE wheels can get a direct 17x10 rim mesh x wheel but they run 2100 a set. Been seeing that a 5x120mm bolt pattern should work even though 5x4.75 is the bolt pattern for 3rd gens. That comes out to 120.65mm. But I saw some TSW wheels on a firebird on cardomain that had the 120mm and the guy said they fit fine, were origionally for a 05 BMW 5 series I think? Something to look into. Havn't tried it myself but I am looking at going that way somehow. Hate 5 spoke. Way to comon.

 

Hammond Edition Race, come in 18s but they run like 750-850 a rim :S 120mm bmw size but will still fit .65 isnt much

 

where are you coming up with these measurements? you need a heck of a lot more spacer than 1/2" for the 50mm offset 11" wheels, as well as whatever wheel you are talking about with the 36mm offset.

 

centerline scorpions 15x7 front 15x8 rears,jimmy

 

I do have to agree, they do look good

 

Yea... 15" rims wont fit. I've got Vettes Barakes front and rear. 13" front 12"rear

 

THESE would

 

kmc stealth..... thats what i got and i love em

 

I like em! Needs to be a little lower but looks good!

 

i agree but i have a collapsed lifter and bad clutch that need to be fixed before i lower it unless you or someone else on here might wanna donate a set of lowering springs for the greater good of 3rd gens

 

I would go with an 18" Boze forged wheel. They have some SWEEET designs that look perfect on a RWD car. Or you could just buy my Ruff Racing 18" 278's off me! LOL.

IMO - These are hot and unique. The combination of the powder coated wheel combined with polished spokes looks great.

 

One of my personal favorites. A little pricey though.

 

What style is that?

 

Those are Forgeline MD3P's with gunmetal centers.

 

I love the Axis "Penta" wheels.... Too bad you'd need to step upto 20" to get the right bolt pattern.........

What do you think of Pontiac G8 wheels? I recently saw two G8s and really liked their rims- they were simple and I think may work well with our cars. I'm having trouble finding them online though, as aftermarket 19in wheels keep popping up, which I think would look to big/silly for our cars. I can't imagine the G8 really came with 19in wheels stock. But here are two links. Thoughts?
