17" Weld RTS S71
 
I'm looking for pics of specifically 17" weld RTS S71 setups. 18s seem to be really popular but they are a bit on the large side for me as far as a 5 spoke design goes. Post em if you got em!

im with u. i hate 18s on these cars.

I think 18's look perfect on these cars (as well as 17's). I also think you'll be hard pressed to find many with 17" RTS's as most have gone 18. I love my 18x10.5 RTS's

I have 17s on mine. I didn't want a big rim on it so I could put more tire on it.

its weird in in pics 18s look perfect. but in person i dont like them. 17s look bad in pics but good in person.

Will ctsv1 brakes clear the 17s?

to the best of my knowledge a 13" rotor is the max on 17s........

your car looks amazing, I assumed you used the part numbers listed by Weld or are they a custom offset?

Thanks! I bought them from Jim's Racing Tires and told him what I wanted to do and he ordered what I needed. I think they are just regular offset though.

Thanks! I've switched my set up since then and this is it now.

I'll get some pics once the sun comes up a little better behind the shop, I've got 17's up front and 15's in the rear. Car isn't the prettiest, but I got a SMOKING deal on the wheels tires and rear end so I had to do it.

Not the best pictures, and the car obviously needs a paint job and a proper cowl hood. 295 55 r15 in the rear and 215 50 r17 up front. Koni str.t up front koni yellows out back, Stranos on all 4 corners.

Wondering this also. Specifically will the CTSV 4 piston brembo’s clear 17x9 with 6.8 BS RTS S71 with 5th gen camaro rotors.

SOM 01SS 04-01-2023 12:07 AM

What's the rear offset on these?

Could you please give me your front and rear set up with the welds.

Your car just sold me on the weld wheels. Beautiful
