      Big steelies?

      Does anyone know ofa company that makes a 17inch 5x4.75 steel wheel similar to the Circle or Basset LMSC wheel? I'm thinking: mountain mist 67RS w/ black stripes and black 17inch steelies.
      Any info is greatly appriciated.

      I know Boyd's had some that looked like big inch steelies, but were billet... I think it was Boyd anyway. I'll go search...

      Wheel Vintiques has some in billet and steel... I think that's who I was thinking of instead of Boyd's.

      I thought about some steelies on my Trans Am, stripping the factory spoilers off, and just running the big by wide 17" steelies looking rims on flat gray. Nice simple clean contemporary look...

      Thanks bnoon,

      Wheel Vintiques makes some real nice wheels but I've got my heart set on a set of these: http://www.bassettwheel.com/1595_cup.html
      in 17 5x4.75. Circle makes them in 16 but I'd like the tire options of a 17. I think I might be out of luck.

      I bought a Crager in 17x8 to use as a mock up wheel. 50.00 at Americas Tire.
