Default 17x4.5 Aluma Star 2.0

Anyone have these or any pics of them. Think they will work with the stock brakes? Any info you guys have on these would be awesome. I think they would look great on an F-body in a 17.

Here they are on a couple stangs...

Damn those look kick ***. But, at $565 each you are looking at over a grand just for front wheels. ouch!

The 15 inch front ones arent much cheaper. Im still debating on going with the 17 inch front runner but would like to see pics of one on a fbody before i make the choice

Yes they are. Guess Im gonna have to be one of the first to get them in 17's then.


Way too much money, but I love the idea of a 17" skinny. If they fit over the stock brakes, they would be perfect.

Nobody has any on an Fbody????

BTW, this is smolies...lol

That notchback fox looks freaking killer. I had no idea they were making these in 17", man if only I had the cash. I would probly buy those over Iforged or Fikse. Depending on if they could take almost daily use.

I looked around and Hoosier makes a skinny 17" tire. But it is a heavy radial.
