Ecklers 17" Rally wheels
I just saw these in the recent catalog...
Rally wheels, in aluminum and 17"
Has anyone tried these?
Any pics of them on a car?

I've never heard of an 'aluminum' rally wheel; could you post a link?

Do they sell trim rings to fit? Do original 15" center caps fit on the 17" wheels? I like the look.

No need for trim rings as the outer rims are polished . . . and, yes - the center caps fit!

They take special center caps...originals don't work.
They come in 17" x 8" with 4.5 BS.
Id love to see someone fit them on a C2.....

Aren't they made by wheel vintiques? The 17?" Someone put a car ad up I think from Vegas a month or so ago. I liked them. Others didn't. Typical.
