I'm saving my dollars. The entire set to fit an 87 with no spacers is only $1,000. Fronts are 17 x 9.5 38mm, rears are 17 x 11 36.5mm. Yum yum!

I'll bet if you shot AFS an e-mail asking for your offset and copy this, they'd fix you up

Ack, I've been looking at ebay for the last couple days for these wheels and didn't see them.

Make sure to call AFS and get the ones for your 87 without the spacers.

I've got to wait a couple months before I can get mine.

Do the 11s stick out and need the fender flare like the GS?

<edited to fix flare>

I got my set on eBay for just under $800. It is a blemish set, but I'll be damned if you can notice the blems without getting on your hands and knees to find them.

They are nice. I just got my set of 4 - 17x11s today from UPS. A little heavier but not bad. Quality is quite nice. $780 shipped. I'm using them as a spare set of racing rims.

Have those on my 84- all 17 x 9.5's though...won silver on Ebay for $305!!! When I got them one had a bend in the lip from shipping :-( called AFS to get a new one...and wouldn't you know it...they sent me a black replacement instead!!!! Well, I had to see what it would look like up against my black vette...AWESOME...back to the phone I go to let them know what happened...they were SOOOO sorry for my mis-fortune that I worked out a deal to send the 3 remaining silver ones back for 3 black ones...

all I can say is sweet- AFS did me right...they are beautiful...and I get tons of compliments on the car with them...

Keep looking on Ebay!

I bought a set of black blems for my 87 but 38mm offset all around and I paid $800 including shipping as AFS pays the freight on the blem wheels. Out of the 4, 1 wheel had a spot where it loked like some dust remained on the wheel during the clearcoat process. It's about 1mm in size and almost impossible to see. Another wheel had a very small area of light scratches and that polised out with some 3M Finesse-It. The other two were perfect.

Call AFS and ask them if the have some blems in stock in the wheels you want and what condition they are in. Most of the wheels AFS advertises as "blems" are actualy excellent wheels. And dealing direct with them, you don't have to wait for a set to show up on eBay and you won't have to worry about getting "sniped"". I went thru 4 different auctions before I gave up and called them.
