Alright after doing about an hour or so of searching on here and nastyz28.com I want to do a zr1 swap onto my camaro instead of buying the heavy steel cragars.

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/806086

I want my car to basically have that same setup. From what I hear all the zr1's are 17x9.5 which is weird because I've found some ads on craigslist for zr1's that are 17 x 8.5.

I need 17 x 8.5 for the front and 17 x 9.5 in the rear . Or rims that are close to that size.

Can someone link me to a place to get good adapters for these rims other than vettebrakes. I know there is another place people use and like better, I just can't remember the name. The point in doing the zr1 swap is to have 17" rims affordably ( yeah i know , its hard in the car world) . I'm 17 and working my ass off to do this so yeah keep that in mind when you recommend parts.


Any help you can give is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Just got some for my El Camino from Motorsport Technology in So-Cal www.Motorsport-Tech.com. Great guys to work with, solid product, and about $25/per adapter less than most. Hub centrec and wheel centrec for $75 ea/before shipping and tax.
