SS GIRL, I got them through Summit. The fronts are their part number CLL-005401547, 15X4 with 1.75" back spacing, at $139.95 each. The rear are their part number CLL-005755547, 15X7.5 with 5" back spacing, at $169.05 each. Rear tires are MT ET Streets 26X10.5X15 and front tires are generic "VW Tires", size is about 25.5X15. The only issues i had was the balancing problem (finding correct location to put weights, each rear rim/tire required 6+ ounces), and finding the correct lug nuts. You will want 12X1.5 short shank open ended mag lug nuts. My total weight saving from the 17X9 SS rims and Tires to the Convo Pros was 90lbs. Here's how it works out...
Stock SS Rims/Tires to Drag Rims/Tires
Stock 17X9 2000 SS Wheel - 22lbs (4) + 88 LBS

2001 Pewter WS6 Where do you get ROH Chrome Wheels Ive been looking for them on the internet with no luck, drop me a link or a vendor name. Im Intrested in some 18x9s and 18x10s. You should of posted a pic that showed the whole car with the wheels. Anyhow nice wheels!
Very cool SS GIRL. IMO i think they are the best look for the price, and they are light. I do like the bogarts on on that Thunder Racing car. If money wasn't an issue i probably would have looking into a set bagarts. You can probably go with a bigger rim in the back, like a 15X8.5 or even 15X10, but 26" would probably be the tallest tire you could use without having to modify the wheel well, or chop the rear end.
