From: looking for a flow bench so Brook and I can race

taller rims= less gearing advantage and harder to get going due to their size and less gearing advantage

17x7 is waaaay too skinny for an aftermarket rim IMHO

I think they will look good as long as you don't go crazy and get them in 20"

17x9.5 should look pretty sweet.

Good idea! I'll volunteer pics of my Black 93 T/A as the guinea pig.

It will really aid in my decision to get them. I'll have C5 brakes in the front with red calipers, the purpose of these wheels (besides looking so damn good) would be to show off the red calipers. My "theme colors" are black and red, so I want the calipers to be visible.

Trey, you're right, these do seem a little small for aftermarket wheels. However, I believe its because Konig focuses heavily on the "sport compact": market rather than domestic/muscle cars.

But, I was told 17" rims were the highest you should go before your performance begins to be compromised. So whoever said somethin about 20's, don't worry I won't be getting those.

Plus, even if I COULD afford 20" wheels, I'd rather spend that $2000 on some engine mods or sparco racing seats and a Corsa GT steering wheel to compliment my theme.
