Dark Stars look so great on Pewter. Guess that's why I went with them too.

I believe they are F body specific.. so never really made a mental note of the back spacing… they fit on a T/A but not on a Camaro owing to the wider rear fenders on the TA.. i just had to BFH the inner fenders, then just undercoat on them.. then i had the fender lips rolled… worked great and looks good too.

Did you have to grind the rear caliper?

I took a little bit off the fins on the back, it was rubbing ever so slightly, literally one pass with a grinding wheel fixed it.

Cars look great. I really like the scenery as well. Finding a good place to take pics isn't always easy.

Digging the look. I'm definitely considering these wheels now. I don't want to grind the crap out of my calipers.

I have these same wheels too, and all I had to do was grind the fin area on the passenger side rear caliper. Driver's side was fine. I haven't heard of anyone having to do any major grinding to make them fit.
