New Wheels/Tires WOOOHOOO!!!

[zmanrc]

I love my old wheels but have REALLY been wanting to upgrade to 17's and a modern directionial tread tire. Had all but given up as everything I really liked was so damned expensive.

Tuesday I came across the deal of my lifetime. Wheels are American Racing TrakStar S 416's
17x9.5 w/5.5 bs in the rear with Khumo Ecsta MX 285/40/17 tires
17x8 w/4.75 bs in the front and 245/45/17 tires.
I would never have believed you could stuff this much wheel and tire under a 2nd gen

Everything brand new! Tires still have all the stickers on them. Mounted to his car once to check fittment and that is all. Then he decided to go a different direction with the car!
he has the reciept for over $2000 for everything. The wheels alone were $1352.

My son and I left at 11am yesterday morning and met him at his house in St. Louis , Mo. at 8pm last night. Got back home at 4am this morning 8-O
I got everything for $1300!!!!!! Merry Christmas to me:christmastree: :snowman: :reidneer2:

Those look awsome on you ride.

Badass Ray! It takes the car to a whole new level! I can't wait to see them in person! Your old wheels were OK but didn't make the car really pop. These seem to do the trick!

Nice! I would have driven that also for that deal

[zmanrc]

Thanks everyone. I'm really happy with the new look!.

Matt ..... He offered to ship them for $100 but I wanted them now as Autorama is in 3 weeks. We took the wife's big Buick which get 30mpg so food and gas was about $100. And it's always fun doing roadtrips with my son .

Guys let me tell you that these pictures do not do the wheels nor the car justice!! My wife and I stopped by Ray's house to see his new wheels and as soon as we drove around the corner and could see the car from a distance we both had a big smile on our faces. Then they looked even better upclose, except for the stickers on the new tires!! LOL Just kidding Ray!

I can wait to see it on display at Autorama with the new hood, painted lower valance, white interior and sweet wheels it is a whole different car than it was just a year ago! Congrats Ray on a Bad Ass Ride!!

Greg (damn no 2nd gen Camaro smilies so I will use this sweet '69)
