My -98 Camaro desperately needs new wheels. Width 9-11" Must fit 4th gen without spacers of any kind.

International shipping required(europe), so the lighter the rims, the better, so I can save on shipping. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

What are you going to be doing with these wheels? For daily driving, the 17x9 SS wheels work excellently. You can easily fit 275s on them and you avoid the BFH method of rear tire fitment and you won't need spacers. For racing, definately go with 11" wide wheels w/ 315s and coerce your 4th gen into making them fit

Put them in my car and test the car's limits. Very little street miles will be driven.

Are they for race tires?

That's the plan. They sell some dot approved Toyo race tires here, I thought I'd take a look at them.

Got 'em!

17x9 10 spoke SS wheels from Virginia! All I have to do now is wait them to be shipped and get me some rubber.

After that I'm ready to go to the track. Well, after the A4->M6 conversion that is..
