Default Cragar SS 18"x9" wheels

Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone has Cragar SS wheels on their 4th gen f-bodies...I am a little confused as to why more people dont go with these...I know they only come in 9" width...which is still a 275 tire....but besides that they look pretty Identical to the TTII's...or am I missing something...They are also 18" instead of 17"...Chrome instead of polished...and you can get a set of them for $700 (can also get 17" for less)...so why have I never seen anyone have these on there cars? do they look that much different in person?? I guess I am just curious as to why no one buys them....

Cragar SS

Where can you get these for $700.00 per set? I would get the 18's myself.
Thanks

Wrong offset for our cars in the 17" size?

617934 17 X 9 5 X 4.75 -12 4 1/2 33 1580 E/T N/A 09090
617934P 17 X 9 5 X 4.75 +12 5 1/2 33 1580 E/T N/A 09090

Can these be custom ordered? Found a site that said
17x9 5X4.75 0 to +36mm
18x9 5X4.75 0 to +36mm

The Cragars were the standard wheels on the Berger/Hot Rod cars and were optional wheels on the ZL1's. There's quite a few people with them, you just don't see them on here that much. There's been several threads on this here already and several pictures of cars with them. A guy parked next to me at Camaro Superfest last year that had chrome 18's on his red SS and it looked real nice.

I found one of the threads with some pictures....I am sold...these will be the rims I get when I have money for new ones, great look, great price, and they are chrome rather than polished!!
