Default Alumastar skinnies and RTS Deep Dish are here!!

Well i had a post asking how you all thought they would look together and today, i have a much better idea! I swear it looks like Weld made the RTS rears to match the Alumastar 1 pc fronts almost perfectly!! New opinions?

I will have a billet center but here's the center cap the RTS rims are sent with...

Thanks! I think i made the right decision and luckily i got a deal on the fronts used for $600 from my new bud 9sec93

Those covers were actually on them in the box! Had i known i would've asked for 2 more! lol

improved1....I can't mount em til i get the car into and out of MWC for the narrowed 9" in the beginning of march. When i do, i will be running the 275/60's that are on the car now likely unless i get a good price for them. They were new when i bought the car and drove it back 600 miles before parking it. Ultimately i will be running the 295/55's.

I had the best of both worlds with the Camaro. 15x3.5 Weldstar RTs, and 17x4 Alumastars

Yea i really liked that combo but i personally prefer all 15's and no rivets. i love those weldstars otherwise. They don't look much different from the RTS design aside from the rivets.

Do you have any idea where i can get billet centers to run with my stock hubs? i sent an email to a guy on yellow bullet who is making them for $55 but i haven't heard back from him yet. I really don't want to run the Weld center caps!!

Yea i'm pretty f'n excited to get this thing over to MWC and see what it looks like afterwards!!

I've heard the RTS 15x10's are 15 lbs, can't confirm that on my cheapo bathroom scale. No clue on the front alumastars but they're pretty damn light!

Well if you can live with 17's front and rear, i wouldn't think it would be much longer til they finally get them out. They've only been talking about it forever now. Unless i'm wrong and they are out but i haven't seen anyone post any yet.
