Default anyone have these wheels?

tried a search, but no info. these would seem to fit on a LT1 f-body, but i am just double checking. what do you guys think? i would like to get them in a hyper dark, but i may have to go with HP evo's for that, and they dont come in 9.5" for 18's. any suggestions?

aza wheel



here's what they would be going on, my new baby, just bought it today

yeah very similar, but you can get them wider than 8" in 18's, i dont want to go 19's since this is going to be a DD.

pretty sure they are the same casting as HP Racing, just different centercap. There are about 10 companies that market the exact same wheel that way.

thanks guys, so no worries about the fitment or bolt pattern. they come w/ a set of hubcentric rings. i only wish i could get them in hyperdark, which i have only found on HP's, and like i mentioned, they are too narrow.

These below are HP Racing 19x9.5 with 275 wide front/rear Nittos. Hypersilver. They look damn good on black convertibles:

nice pics nineball, i was looking at the prices of going 19's last night. not too much difference. my only drawback would be the ride quality since this will be a DD. but i know i couldnt tell a differnce when i went from 17's to 18's on my SS, so maybe it wont be a big deal. i need to check on tire prices though. thanks for the pics

Those wheels are nice looking.. I believe I have seen them on a silver ws6 somewhere, and they looked amazing.

I had the 19s and Nittos on my '02 convertible SS. Ride quality was surprisingly nice, didn't feel any different from stock. I even did a 2,000 mile road trip and a 3,200 mile Power Tour on those wheels/tires.

good info tony, thanks again. it looks like i can actually get the Hp's cheaper than the aza's.

would hyper black look better than the hyper silver on a black car? the TA above looks great w/ the silver, but my initial thought was to go w/ the hyper black if i could find what i wanted in them. hmmm, too many decisions now, 18's or 19's, hyper black or hyper silver? ahhh, i thought i had this figured out this time
