Exclamation Custom BS street lites on my camaro (pics)
Bought the wheels from Fastbillet on here, great guy to deal with. The centers were
powder coated black, then milled out.

Specs are:

17x7" with 4.75" bs
17x9.5" with 6.25" bs

I mounted 225/50's in the front and 275/40's in the rear. Finally getting to try out the NT05s and liking them alot so far.

Thanks man, everything mounted and balanced was under $1500. Bought the tires from Discounttires.com and had a local shop mount them on the wheels.

Thats different, but i like it. It's crazy how the little touch of black makes them look so different compared to normal street lites. I have 17x7's & 17x11's.

Thanks guys, from what I understand, they powder coated the blank centers then cut them and welded them to the hoops. Yeah I flared my rear fenders for a previous set of wheels, luckly these fit the flares pretty good.

Here are a few more shots of them.

I wish these wheels came in a 17x4! Wonder if they could be custom made?

$100 but that was before he realized it would take 4.5 hours per wheel. He is still charging me $100 but I'm gonna throw him $200 when I get them back

that's what I was wanting to do with a set of Street Lites! Looks great! I'm curious though, why only 9.5" in rear? Why not 11"?
