Hi Rich,

My friend Paul (Blown96WS6) posted this question a while back and never got an answer. We also had a friend post on the Vette board with no answer. I'd be interested in the answer too!

CCW is just about your best bet. They make skinnies for Vettes, Vipers and Poopras.

LOL. Whoops!

Complete Custom Wheel. There was a local viper owner with a set of them on his car. They look a lot like the Fikse FM10s.

Would you mind letting us know pricing after you inquire? Also..what can you do for skinny 17" tires?

Not sure what people do for skinnies. MT makes a 22.0/2.5-17 ET Front and you can get a 190/50ZR17 motorcycle tire.

Hey Rich,

When you talk to them, if it seems like a good wheel to you, maybe check and see if they would be interested in some kind of a GP? There are 2 or 3 of us out here in SD who would probably be interested.

Let us know what you find out!
