Default Anyone have any idea what wheels these are?
I know they're on a second gen, but I guess they would fit any F-body. I've been trying to figure out what wheels they are for quite awhile now. I want to get a new set of rims for my '78 (in my sig pic) for cruiser wheels, and there isn't a very big selection of 17" wheels that appeal to me on a second gen. Anyway, anyone have any idea what they are? No, I don't have any more pictures of them.

I was going to go with a set of 16x8 GTA's but the widest street tire I could find for them is 255/50/16. I want atleast 275, since I'm running 295/50/15's right now. So that kind of axed that whole plan.

Not sure off the top of my head. They look really good, although I'd say they would be better in 5 spoke instead of 6.

Sadly I don't think 5 spokes look good at all on the 2nd gens. All the 5 spoke wheels I've seen on 2nd gens look like crap, IMO of course.

Nowai! I know he has a set of TT2's for that car, but those in the picture aren't of them. I think I have a picture of it with 'em on it.

Other than the Hood, yes.

That hood looks great on 4th Gen T/A's, but doesnt even come close to matching the lines of a 3rd gen Camaro.
