Re: NEW STYLE CRAGAR SS WHEELS There is another Cragar rim thats pretty similar to these. I'm pretty sure they havent been out for a year, there are also a lot of copies of this type of rim out there.

Re: NEW STYLE CRAGAR SS WHEELS Personally I like em a lot. Very nostalgic. Think of those in 17x11's in the rear with some big ol DR's on them <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

If you guys are taling about these rims then I think those have been around for a while because theres a mustang that goes to the same gym as I do that has rims that look similar to those. He's had them since last year . <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Re: NEW STYLE CRAGAR SS WHEELS Unfortunately, Cragar do not list a 5x4.75 bolt pattern in the 17x9.5 wheels. Does the 17x9, 5x4.75 with a 4.5 offset fit? Can you put a 275x40x17 on a 17X9 rim or is the rim too narrow?Thanks.

Verdad Gallardo Re: NEW STYLE CRAGAR SS WHEELS 17" x 9" wheel should have a 50mm offset and 7" backspacing.
275/40ZR17 tire will fit just fine. That is stock size wheel and tire for and SS and WS-6.

Re: NEW STYLE CRAGAR SS WHEELS Cragar does make the wheel. I got a price of $280 from Americas Tire Company. The only promblem is it takes 4-6 weeks to get them due to the fact that they make them per indivdual car. They also weigh in at 24.9 lbs in a 17x9.5.

Re: NEW STYLE CRAGAR SS WHEELS When I bought my TT2's a couple of months ago (Which look very similiar to the Crager SS) Crager did not make this wheel in a 17x11. I like the styling and would have got the Cragers first. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
Re: NEW STYLE CRAGAR SS WHEELS the backspacing on the series 61 Cragar SS wheels is not sufficient from what I understand. You would need to order a custom backspacing. The 4x120mm 17x11's I have seen come with a max backspacing of 5.5"
