T-tops? Fiberlgass or glass? New or used? Both show up regularly on eBay; prices vary.

I got mine through these guy's www.newstalgiawheel.com they were best I could find as far as a tire/wheels package. Free Shipping and mount and balance as well..... Great service from these guy's as well, very helpful. They are out of Tennessee.

I have 17 X 8 and dont use spacers.
Clearance is just fine, and I lowered it also.
