You dig them real hard? Interesting....haha, kidding man - must be a NE term. I've got some relatives up there, wicked is their word of choice.

They look pretty good, they look to be more aimed at sport trucks/suvs to me though as far as the sizing goes.

They don't make them in the right offset and bs to fit a Camaro/Firebird. They are more for the new Challengers/Chargers. I already called on them for a buddies Firebird.

spacers would be needed to make them fit though, correct? i saw the offset either as a +2 or -4...

An 18x9.5 has an offset of -4mm. So if you added a spacer to the wheel it will stick the wheel out further, giving it a greater offset. So if you added a 15mm spacer the offset would essentially be -19mm. But that is still not the right off set and you do not want to add that big of a spacer.

The rep at Eagle Alloy said these wheels are aimed more towards "new" muscle cars and not the F bodys of the past. Sorry guys.

I've seen a black TA with those in black on here. The guy said he sold them because they stuck out too far whatever size he got

Nice wheels. Looks more like a Foose nitrous, which I actually prefer over a TTII, but nice wheels

Yea i was going to say that, they actually look like the foose legends, same as nitrous, but without the rivets. I wish they had the same price tag as TTs......
