hot dang! now those babies really flip my switch!
im afraid to look and see the price of em cuz if theyre comparible to afs zr1's or zo6's i might have to figure out how to sneak a set past my checkbook sensor.
i REALLY like those.the rivet look makes em look high tech.
congrats

edit-he didnt mispell that guys,heres a link.
the black on the splash page are pretty nice too
http://www.privatwheels.com/

edit edit:looks like you found the only wheel they make in a 17x9.5.
it doesnt look like they have any 11in
did you find a c4 application for the fitment or did you just go by the specs they have listed?
they look like they fit nice.

I still love that rim and it does wonders to the look of your car, but after looking at it again, the way the star pattern is dished, it kinda resembles a Cobra R rim... I hope I don't get bashed too badly for that remark
