Ordered new wheels today!

[79_EFI_Z]

Just scored these on clearance from Centerline. $175 each for 17x8 in the front and $275 each for 17x9.5 in the back. Two peice rotary forged. Should look killer on my 79 Z28.

pics please pics! I'am very interested in those wheels,did you order directly from them and how long do you have to wait?

[79_EFI_Z]

Well, I just ordered them today, I should see them in about 3 weeks, and yes I ordered direct. The catch is, they don't actually make these anymore and they had just gotten a set back from Summit which were all 17x8 with a 4.5" backspace. I called them up and asked about 9.5's and they said they could rehoop them to a 9.5 if needed since they are a 2 peice wheel. The 17x8 worked up front for me, but I did opt to have the rears rehooped to a 17x9.5 with a 5.5" backspace. That is also why it will take 3 weeks... otherwise I'm sure they'd show a bit quicker. Centerline still has the wheel listed in their wheel deals section of their website, although from what I understood, they only had the one set in the 17" sizing, but I could be wrong.

Btw, what would you guys recommend for rubber?

Good looking wheels! Similar to the Budnik Gassers on Robert Bailo's '68. (...kinda)
Does anyone have pictures of these Centerline Meteors on a first gen Camaro?

I'm interested to know how well the rears fit, let us know after you get them mounted.
