Dood, I never quite understood why some people are like, "Check out what I have. But, I wont tell you how to get it. Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah!" We're spread across the country. If it looks good, what's the problem with sharing?

The owner was BADGTA. He used adapters for the cobra wheels. The car was sold a while back and I have not seen him on the board for a while. Do a search on his name and you should find some pics.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

*** NEVER MIND I JUST FOUND THE INFO THANKS!!!!


I think the best looking rims on a thirdgen are the Boyd Coddington Espada, and this Justin's ride is the best looking thirdgen ever".

Those are very nice. Anyone know the size and offset on these wheels? Or what's his info so I can ask him. The wheels tuck in real nicely.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

This is a beautiful car and the wheels look great on it. The style of the wheel has to fit the style of the car .

I came across these on the AxisWheels website. 17" staggered. I'd rock 'em if I ever got rid of my 18" Boyd's. They're called the OG San.

I think that is the wrong bolt pattern for our cars... I thought we had 5 x 4.75".. What they show is 5 x 4.5"..

I was checking out those OG SAN, I would love to have a set of those but in 5x5... looks like they only go up to 4.75 tho

( I should clarify, different project)

I changed my wheel/tire combo last year. They are 17x9.5 / 18x10.5 deep dish C5's with 305/35/18 Nitto DR's in the back. The front tires were replaced after these photos were taken, I now have a 275/40/17 bfGoodrich in the front.

They don't. They actually tuck in maybe a 1/4" to a 1/2".

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims

Sorry, these are the only pictures I have. Both car and wheels are extremely dirty. Love the chrome iroc wheel style, but personally think 17s in the front and 18s in the rear go great on this car.

hey bud, what kind/size wheels are these.. hard to tell from the photos but they look a little bit like BOZE wheels. specifically a style called "injected" Boze wheels which I have been considering.. are these those or something different?

I'm looking at the ZR1's as well, did you have to use any spacers or modify anything to get them on?

Most everyone use a 2" adapter . I would spend the money and get adapters instead of spacers.
