Opinions on wheels(kinda long)

1BAD89 · 06-25-2001, 03:56 PM

Ok I'm looking to buy some new wheels and tires. I have a 89 GT by the way. I had some 17x9 cobra R's all the way around with 245's (I loved the way they looked) but they rubbed really bad, like to the point it knocked off my weights on the front, and scraped the inside of my rim, so I sold them. I have some on there now that look like the saleens but the inner is gold. I am looking at getting 4-17x8 Chrome cobra R's with 245's(so I can rotate them, that's a big +). And I was wondering what your opinions were and if you guys/girls had any pictures that you could post. Anyone have any prices etc? Any help is much appreciated.
