Anyone ever seen these? I've seen lots of threads with people clamoring for a 18" option. Little pricey but look sweet. I love the Bandit shoutout with the Buford-T name. LOL

G Body parts is producing something much more accurate to the GM wheel in an 18" since the Grand Nationals got them. I don't know how the offsets work with the F-body for what they produce, they were supposed to do offsets for the F-body though

 

I was reading on some G body forum about the 18x9 backspacing. Someone measured the backspacing and it was actually 4.75 and not the 4.25 listed on G body parts site. So that means if you mounted a 275/35-18 that would make the tire flush with the fender lip. Of course if you have any brake upgrade larger than stock its going to stick out a bit. That is a no go for me, plus the fact that its only 9 inches wide and not 9.5 or 10. If they were 18x10 with 6 inch backspace or +12 offset I would be sold.

 

That means the wheel would go in, not out, so it would work out fine with a brake kit that put a rotor with a hat over the hub

 

Just checked them out and they look pretty awesome. Looks like they have 18's and 19's: https://gbodyparts.com/reproduction-wheels-p-3511.html

Those are WHEELS...

 

You could always get some HRE 501s, but spending more on wheels that the entire car is worth is not something most will do.
