what do you think about these rims

They are billet specialties

i can get them in 17x9.5's and 17x11's. Plus i have to tell them the backspacing i need. They make custom wheels for hotrods, in other words they dont make a set bolt patern or backspacing, they will make what ever you want.

On the contrary, I don't think I'd like it on the Stang, and I think it'd look PIMP on your Camaro.

I don't like those particular wheels, therefore I wouldn't like them on any vehicle...if you are gonna dish out the cash for Billet Specialties, make sure that is what you want...

You are absolutely correct though, they do make them for whatever vehicle you want, with the exception of the Monaco...

They have quite a few wheels in the SLX Series that I think would look good on a F-Body, and a few in the Cruise Line. My personal favorite though, is the Chi-Cayne.

well i can get them a little cheaper from www.wheelsforless.com. The 17x9.5's for about 280 and the 17x11's for 315. Now i just have to figure out what backspacing. they offer from 4 all the way up to 7 1/2. i want them kinda dished in the back, not to much for rubbing though. They also have torque thrust II's in an 18x10 inch version. Was looking at the 17 torque thrust II's but they are everywhere now. 18 however may make it a little different. Kinda like the sema 302 z28. now i just need to figure out how to use photoshop. I am a programming student and i don't even know how to use one.
