I know Randy has some sets available, but I am not sure how much shipping from California would be. Anyone have something closer to Maryland?
In terms of "rental," I'm half thinking of taking the car to the Toledo Tour at the beginning of July. I haven't committed to anything though. |

Yeah I have chrome 17x9 wheels from a 2000 ss on my car now and really like how they shine. I have done a ton of research on this and it looks like it would make more sense to go with 18x10.5 wheels because there is a lot more normal street tires available for that size the 17x11. Given the little difference in wheel price I think that is what I am going to do. I sure appreciate your time and encouragement Jeff.

I'm currently running a set of their 18x10.5's so that's why mine are available. I can pick up used R6's in the 18's way easier than the 17's these days so I can relate. |
