thinking about gething c7 vette wheels.....

Hi,

I've got an 89 bird and I thinking about getting some new 17 x9.5 front and rear c7 corvette wheels.

I'm just not sure if they would fit. I think I'm gona need 2 in wheel spacers for sure but I just want to see what what you think before I drop the coin on them. Here's a linkhttp://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...&storeId=10001

Thanks

About the same price give or take on shipping. Yes 2 in spacers all the way around. Gotta take some pics for me if you get them. Can't find anyone with them

I would sell my wheels in heartbeat for those if they look good. If you decide to buy, definitely post pics so we can all admire. OEwheels has them in a charcoal grey as well.

If you are wanting to run a 9.5 width rim up front go with 18's. You'll have more clearance Due to the strut and tie rod end. It gets really close with a 17.
