Free is a price I can afford: New 17 inch rims for the CST10.
Still hunting for a gas tank...

Gotta figure out some things 1st! There's two ways to make these fit in the rear with no problem. these are for a late model Chevy truck/SUV, and while the bolt pattern is the same, the back spacing isn't wide enough for tires to clear. Option 1 is to use a set of spacers w/longer wheel studs, which would allow the rim to fit w/out machining it, or the hub. Keeps the tires out of the bed and saves on machining costs. Also could shove some fatter tires on too and really fill up those wheel wells
2nd plan is to tub the bed a few inches, and machine that axle hubs to fit the rims, but not looking as likely of a plan. The rims will fit up front with no problem once disk brakes are done up.

It came with the truck, and ****es me off too
I think the wheels will look great once the truck is lowed a bit and with the tires on. The 2-1/2 in drop spindles up front (when I do disk brakes) and 3in in rear will do it nicely.

Mainly a gas tank, and brakes and some other junk. $$$ is the only obstical. But, depending if I can get another job (closer to home), I may sell the Firebird and put that cash into getting this sucker on the road. And how did you manage to roll a car? I've done some dumb stuff in the firebird, but not anything near rolling it.

Was raining, unmaintained road in the middle of nowhere... Steep downhill with a sharp curve... Car got sideways and drove up the hill face... Flipped and slid for about 50 or so meters. My dad got stitches, I just got some cuts and bruises...
If you want a pic of the car, PM me. |

Free really is a price you can't beat I know, but let me say this..
I got a deal on a set of wheels so I bought them, they were the proper offset for a 4th gen, not a 3rd gen. You should know Texan, it would have required at the minimum 2" spacers to make them clear. I decided to go against it and sold those wheels for a set that would fit my car, and I definitely didn't regret it. I would sell those and buy a set that will just bolt right on, do you really want to go through all of that hassle just to install a set of wheels? Yeah, you might like them.. I loved my first set and they would have looked killer, but I still wouldn't change it that I sold them. I personally believe that longer studs and spacers aren't safe, you could get adapters that bolt onto your stock studs and then have another set of studs sticking out of the adapter to bolt the wheel to, but that would require ALOT of lug nuts, double the work of putting on the wheels.. I really just don't think they are worth it. |

If I'm going wide *** tires, I need mo' powah! to back it up. Ling- Will take it into consideration. I'm far from final on it though.
