Wife had to hide all the sharp objects!!!!!!!!!
I had a line on some 17" rims for my car that cleared the 325mm big brakes from kore3 then the bs$#@!!!!&*!!!!!! went and sold them behind my back. Now I'm in search again for rims n 17x9-10 and 17x11 for my firebird. Zr1 rims are in that range and will clear the brakes, but the backspace is all messed up. 6.7 in front and 7.4 in rear. Has anyone ran these rims on there first gen? If so what did you need to bolt these on?
Suspension plan is truturn front and ridetech 4link/airbar in rear. I am having a custom 9" rear made from another buddy. And yes I'm going to tub the rear. Any help is always welcome

Requires a lot of spacers. 1.8in in the front, 2in in the back. Mine are 9.5 wide all around though, the rears might not fit without a minitub or severe hammer work. I had issues in the front with the wheel rubbing the steering arms and lightly rubbing the upper A-arm, might have been unnecessary, but I get Speedtech High Clearance uppers to help clear the A-arms, now there's no chance of the wheel ever hitting it.
The truturn you have in might might just be perfect for this and require a lot less spacer, but IDK as of yet, I'm too poor to pick one up.Dan

Lol ya Ive been saving for it sense September. If ur running that big of spacers on the rear with 9.5, can't imagine what it be with 11" rear.
