They're from Complete Custom Wheel. They have lots of different styles, but these are called their CCW Classics, and are polished aluminum. I don't actually know the exact back spacing on mine, because the guys at Street Shop, Inc. ordered them specifically for my car when they were building my chassis. However, you can get them in lip sizes of 1" to 3.5" for the 18x9 wheel and 1" to 4.0" for the 18x10 wheel. Go to their web site and they have a complete chart.

I'm hoping to get Fiero seats with Mr. Mike's Covers for my car, too. What covers are these? Are they leather or are the centers comfort weave? I'd appreciate it if you could state the style, too (e.g. Semi-Sport?) Thanks!

Yes leather, not comfort weave center I could not find it, just seems there in none of the original stuff available. The center was a suggestion from Mr Mike . If you would call him I am sure he would tell you. Not sure what style is called I just told him I wanted them to look like originals as much as possible. Very no hassle guy to work with and knows his trade very well.

I saw this car in person a few months back at a car show in Fort Worth, and I can attest that it is really a top-notch car. Everything on it is very well done.

So I take it that if the wheels are all 8" wide the rears sit out a little further than the fronts?
