i dont know about the vet but i am getting some for my camaro. i think they are the hottest wheels getting around. i think it sux because the 7 inch convos have a 3.5 backspace and the 8 inch have the 3.5 backspace but then the 7.5 wheels have a 5 inch backspace so i cant get 7.5 on the camaro front. i just want to get as much of those ribs as possible in the wheel... im sure someone will chime in with the fattest ones you can shove in there.

There are a couple of owners on here that had them or have them. I know the one guy that has the 546HP mini rat motor had a set on and they were awesome looking. Hopefully he'll chime in and post a pic as well.

carguy4 sure,
Thanks for your assist on vet convos.
Out of interest I am an Aussie with a converted right hand drive vet.
You car is very similar to mine particularly colour.
I have a litte sag on the left hand side and have posted another thread.
You rear photos show a dead square profile.
Do you know if the rear clip supporting the rear bumper bar can twist and or can be adjusted to counter a twist of say around 10mm?
