Chrome 93 Replica Rims from Wheelreplicas.com?

Post by 93SATX »

Hello,

I searched the threads and see a few conversations about these. I am looking at ordering them since I have a aftermarket k-member and my front wheels stick in about an inch.

Sound like my issue will be in the rear and tire size. Has anyone recently put these on and what tires are you running?

Thanks,

Jay

The rears aren't a problem. They actually fit better than original the fronts are where the problems arise but switching to GT rotors solves that.

I am running Nitto 555's and size 255/40ZR17s with GT front rotors and they are tucked in nicely. The rears look perfect the way they come. I'm also going back to the stock springs....

Once we get some nice weather in Michigan I will get some pictures up. And of course master the technique of posting pictures. :pat:

You can see that the rims are tucked in the fenders nicely. Picture is a little big, lol! :pat: :headbang:
