I do love the way the ZQ8's look on the car! They have a modern-stock appearance that's hard to get!

I'm not sure a 17" diameter, 10" wide wheel will fit. I have 17x9.5s right now and about 1/2" to 3/4" clearance between the rim lip and the strut. I haven't fit the wheels yet but I think it will be close - worst case I buy a new inner hoop. The wheels need to clear the brakes too.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

yea i think you will run issues with the front strut lip and the tie rod will probably have clerance issues to but will not know till you mock up wheel but 10" should fit width wise it has been done as long you get offset and backspacing right ive seen your tread with the brakes sweet setup

Looks like the HRE540's are similar to those. I think these are HP Evo rims which are similar.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

Evo's have been discontinued, the RPM 505's are a popular alternative...http://www.wheelsnext.com/wheels-rim...persilver.html
I think any of these will require adapters though. Someone several pages back posted pics of these on his Iroc.

I had the 505's on a 99 ram air t/a. I loved the look. I am trying to stay away from spacers. I have looked through this whole thread and didn't see any of these wheels. I actually started a thread about the 505's but no one has replied sayin they are running these...

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

I really like the look of the 505's with the stance of the red T/A above. Guess it will just be a matter of getting them, and finding a spacer combo. As for spacers, I tend to be kinda stupid from time to time, and thats just another thing that could fail under my right foot...

Spacers required of course, C4 fitment I'm guessing.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

Well, the replacement third gen will be getting some 17x9.5 C6 ZO6 replicas after seeing the them on a few cars in this thread, they are very reasonably priced from Ebay and i think 275s all the way around and dropped a inch or so will have the 91 looking just right, these will be going on my 86 TA, i will post pics after the 6.0 is swapped in from this car as well as the moser 12 bolt:

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

Hey, 86FyrBrd, where did you get those WS6's? Did you buy them repopped? Or did you find them on ebay, or ???
BTW, will those bolt straight up to my 86 T/A?

I realize this thread is well-aged, but I thought it'd be worth a shot to ask.

Thanks.

Probably not. Since they are euro wheels and not available here, you will be good. Besides, welcome to forums. You want complete one-offs, you cnc them yourself. If you buy a mass produced cast wheel, then others will have it. Who cares if a guy 10,000 miles from you has the same wheel? Especially when that isn't going to happen.

So you are going to tell me how to spend my money? Maybe I should fire up the CNC mill in the basement so you can't spoil it for me! Just had to come in here and run your mouth off huh?

Lol, I can't tell if you're joking around or being serious here. But really? Anyone with half a brain could have figured out what wheels you have. Anyone who spends any time on any BMW or stance related forums will know.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

I am dead serious! If it was so easy to find them, why did about 10 people PM me wanting to know what wheels they are from when I 1st showed a pic of them? And then there were some in threads. No..it's this new twerp who came in here just to ruin my day.. obviously no purpose at all.

Remember the M6 wheels? I had those and boom, at least 3!!! other guys I know of had them, even some douche in my home town. Now this again

Well, half the people here can barely even operate a keyboard, so you're pretty safe there, and if you never spent any time online, do you still think you would see them on another 3rd gen? And one last thing, 99% of the members on here wouldn't spend that kind of coin on wheels. I think you're fine, You're car is still one of a kind. And I 100% understand wanting unique wheels. Which is half the reason what I'm basing my selection on.

If you want to be unique, put some stock 16" IROC rims on. No one has them anymore.
