I got them off Ebay... but Summit sells them too...

The front 15 x 4 with 1 3/4 inch backspacing is Centerline Part number: 005401547

The rear ones are part number: 005853547

They might stick out a little bit on a stock C3.. I have 1 inch flares and they fit just perfect..

I will have my Mickey Thompson ET Streets installed on the rear ones and some 165R15 tires on the front runners...
