Looks good but it sucks that they don't off a decent size in a 17"

I agree with you all, but the 18X9.5's might be a nice alternative for somebody who was in the market for TTII's but was holding back on buying them because they were hesitant about having a set of wheels that needed to be polished. That and, if you were really serious about it you could always get the rears custom widened...

Coy's wheels are not expensive. The problem is that our cars are too new. They only have offsets for '91 and older. I called them about these wheels and he said they would stick out way too far because the hubs on '91 and older Camaros and 'Birds were inboard about 2 inches further than the later models.

yeah the backspacing needs to be up around 7 for them to fit right. 18x9.5 is a good size though. Interesting find here anyways. They might start offering a better offset sooner or later.

My buddy had the polished 18s on his 67 Camaro SS. Not bad.
