Am thinking of getting a set of those rims for my 90 vette (one day down the track)- its great to see what they look like on another Black vette - Im thinking of going polished.

Thanks for sharing
They're 17x9.5 front and rear. Tires are 275/40/17

It rides so much better..

Also did brakes all the way around and shocks (removed the FX3)
They look great. I just put the same ones on my 96. They really make the car look fine.

Default Congrats Dood!

Dude, you made the right choice!

AFS Wheels was probably the worst experience I've ever had with a mail order vender, my second choice will be posted very soon unless he gets me a check sent to my PO Box in the next few days.

AFS did not give me a full refund until they "found" the other wheels that were "lost" in the return shipping. Finally, almost 2 months after the day I sent them back, I got my deserved full refund.

Your wheels look great!
