Hello, I am about to purchase a set of 17x8 bonspeed huntington's for my 67 camaro convert. The car is torch red with a black top, and has been lowered 2" all around.

I am thinking I need 4.75-4.875 backspacing on all 4 corners. My dad has bought me tires the last two Christmas' and I have finally saved enough for wheels. The tires are 215/45ZR17 g-force sports for the front and 255/50ZR17 g-force T/A KDWS for the rears.

My biggest concerns are is the backspacing correct, are the front tires to small for a 8" rim, and are these wheels worth that much money (I have a quote for 350 each). Thanks for any input.

Semi off topic, but do you mind telling me who got you that quote? Send me a PM if you can

The quote was from someone at newstalgia.

I have the huntingtons on my 'vette. Great wheel, very nicely made.

In fact its good to know that Newstalgia are now carrying them as I have to get two new rear wheels as I have put the L88 flares on the car and either want 18 x 12's (if they make them) or an 18 x 10 with less offset.
