From Vancouver, BC.
Front fitment isn't exactly what I wanted, but I can live with it for the time being.
Some fender pulling and some smoothing of front and rear bumpers to come. Textured rub strips and clean hood as well.
Oh yah. 17x8 et0 all around.

uhh..not to be a dick or anything, but why get custom wheels made only 8" wide?
i mean it loks good, but why not wider?

[jasonklee]

Cool.

I somewhat expected a bit more poke.

If they're Diamond Racing or similar, the next choice up from 8" is 10. Then dont do in between

[aar0n.]

Brian McPeePants' old wheels right?

[hinrichs]

looks good to me

[cabezzz]

Me like teh pokey

[macleanshaun]

Diamond only made one 17" wheel which is 8" wide. They wouldn't go any wider because they would be horrendously heavy. Somewhere around 55lbs before tires.
They no longer make 17s, the biggest you can get is 16" now, until they find a new supplier for 17" barrels.
And the wheels came brand new, mcpeepants' wheels were sold to someone else on the east coast I believe.

Thanks guys!

[Kielan]

Love it.

wish i can get some 17inch steelies

[patrick_irwin]

that is true, I spoke to bill about some 9" and 10" with 17" barrel. and he said no go. I think it looks good though. I love white wheels

[macleanshaun]

Yeah I wanted 17x8 up front, 17x9.5 in the rear. Had to go with the 8. Could maybe get them widened somewhere in the future... but will probably get tired of the look by that time and go with something totally new.
