Why not go with a 17x9 for the rear? you will keep the lip and can go with a wider tire. Be honest wouldn't you rather see a 275

You of all people should know that a 17x9 with a 275 section requires exactly the right BS on a Nova. Picky arse Novas...

From what I can see about the 10% summit discount, Im guessing they discontinued that because they lowered there prices and any thing that is summit brand there selling at jobber(shop price) to the public or very, very, very close to jobber, that what i see when i look at my dealer catalog

Those do look sweet. And they're in my price range, too.
Now, for the obvious question. Does it look like they'll clear a 13" C5 caliper?Doug Gulley

17x9 5x4.75 6 inches of backspacing-143.95
Proven
If that is too much backspacing then just use a spacer to get it perfect.
You would need to move your shocks inboard though.Jason Nichols

Have any of you ordered the chrome version ? I'm really liking the way they look, but my truck stays outside and is never garaged, so I'm wondering how sturdy that chrome is.
I've got some cheap chrome steel wheels that always shine up and never rust from just being dirty, but they are chrome over steel rather than aluminum.
It seems like the old chromed Cragar S/S wheels need a lot of attention to stay good, for example you can't just leave them dirty or the chrome will start to pit and rust. Is this just the nature of chromed aluminum ?
I'm very tempted to get a set though, these wheels look great !

I already gave up on you guys. I had to see them on mine. I'm already sold. The style, backspacing & price is right just what I have been searching for.

I'm sorry to say that we have lost Rocky.

Finally mounted today. There’s too much snow and salt here to try them on the road.
