Before & After Pics: Pewter Z28 with 35 LE SS rims
I got a great deal from Wildman on this forum.
I bought his 35 LE SS rims and slapped em on my Z28.
It looks like a totally different car from my stock rims.

As far as the cost, I searched the forums for about 6 months looking for someone to sell their used ones. The dealers wanted $1200 for a new set and I found another place that would sell em for $800 but I justed checked their website and they dont have them up anymore.
I bought the rims with Goodyear tires (50 - 75% tread left) for $700 which included shipping. I could not pass that up. Wildman on this forum sold em to me and he was great to deal with!

Wow Thomas, that is incredibly nice looking!!! I never thought they would look so good. Now it makes the deal that much sweeter.
I bet your wife was happy too.
That just looks amazing.
Well, it was a pleasure doing business with you, and I would recommend you to anyone to do business with.

How did you acquire your rims and how did you stretch'em to 17x11's?
I would really like to get the ultra z hood but that is going to have to wait for a while. Your car looks niiicce!

I have been spreading the good news about your selling techniques. The rims arrived spotless and what a deal! Best mod I could have done to the car. If ever we meet I will buy the rounds

Just kidding. The stretching of the rear wheels would be a good future mod for you Thomas.

BAIN,
When you stretched the rims, did you have any fitment problems (ie: rubbing, offset, etc) I looked at the Wheels America website and it sounds tempting
