Question Simmons FR17/FR18... anyone running these....

I am considering buying a set of FR17's... 9.5" up front, 10.5" out back. I want them in full polish but what I really want is to see some pics of these wheels on an LT1 Camaro.... preferably in silver. Yeah I know, I don't ask for much do I?

If you have pics, please post em'.

Thanks.

Well okay then... only 26 views so I'm missing a big audience here.

Found a picture of some FR18's on an LS1 but still no LT's.

Still debating, "polish or body-color-center"....... "polish or body-color-center"......."polish or body-color-center"....... decisions, decisions....

MG- I believe INTIMID8 has or had some 17s on his SS. Might email him, I know he has pics.

I've been thinking about these wheels myself. Simmons has a couple of new wheels out as well. I've also been looking at some of forgelines new wheels but they are getting into the Kinesis price range.

When are you going to post some pics of your sled up? I'd love to see the Ferrari Titanium on an F-body.

I have been thinking about selling my wheels and going with the Simmons F series in teh same wheel size as you are talking about except with the center in charcoal. I will go throgh my pictures and see if I have some of these wheels. I have numerous pictures of them I just don't remember what all I have.

This is probably more of what you are looking for. I have these pictures saved but here is his site. I know I have pictures of other cars with them also but I am leaving for work now and i don't have the time. I'll try to get them when I get home.

I decided to go with polished in 17x10 front and 17x11 out back with Yokohama AVS Sports.

Thanks for the help.
