So my dad tosses me the monthly JC Whitney catalog he gets. Not too shabby!
I see a few styles of wheels I might like. Best part... 15x7s and 15x8s... I planned on going with 911SC or 930 style flares in the front/rear anyhow for a good look (like GTeener's). So, back to wheels. I plan to flare anyhow, but keep 'er 4-lug. I found 2 styles I like: First wheel style. 15x7's and 15x8's, $99/ea + S/H. Second wheel style. 15x7's and 15x8's, $99/ea + S/H. I'm undecided. It's also tyre season... Will these fit with flares? Too far inset to the body? Will I need spacers? |

Nicely stated... You can do a LOT better for not a lot more money than any wheel like that. Not to mention, the backspace issues, wheel integrity, cheap chrome plating, doing business with JC Whitney and the insane weight of these rims... good luck! -greg- |
