Does anyone know who the guy is with the 3 pics of the 17" Hopsters? I would like to get in touch with him about sizes.

I called both Jegs and Summit today and was quite let down. Both said that neither the Hopster nor the TT2 had the correct backspacking for the 3rd gens (I was specifically looking for a 9.5" rear wheel). They said that the came in a 7" (4th gen) or a 6.5" (C4 vette).

Does anyone know any other sizes that look good on the rear that are bigger than 8"?
