Re: NEW STYLE CRAGAR SS WHEELS
I am not very fond of these wheels. I they don't look bad but they look better on older model cars(ex. 1rst gen camaros and chevelles and stuff)

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.

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"
