Jeff call Fred Flintstone. I think he has some big wheels for you. I though you allready got some wheels? Jeff I have seen a couple of 3rd gens with the 17 inch Torque twist 11 and they looked very sweet.

I vote for the Torque Thrust II's.I think those look sweet.We ordered a set for a 66 Mustang fastback where I work.They sent the wrong bolt pattern.They sent us Chevy wheels.I am going to check out the backspacing on them and if they are correct for my car,My boss said he would sell them to me for cost ($640). Man I hope they are right.Does anyone know the correct backspacing on a 91 Z28??

Everyone and their brother has a set of Torque Thrust 2's, I have a set of Simmons FR 17's on my 92, but they are definatly not light or cheap. What's wrong with your rims? I think they look perfect on your car!

i'm looking for a lightweight "tuner" type wheel.....

something like civic people can order that weighs around 8lbs a piece unlike the heavy 20lb street ones.

yeah i appreciate the ideas, but putting tt2's on my car would be like cobra r's on a mustang.
