Are those 17x11 in the back? I thought the 17x11 was supposed to have a wider lip than the front? I'm still undecided.

I've been looking specifically for the one's that Tomzwheels sells in the wider lip version. Yes the lip appears to be bigger but if those are the wheels, then the lips isn't much bigger it just has more polished area.

The one's I have seen that I like are the ones on ItSStock00's old car. Other than that I've only liked the OEM GM Grand Sport wheels or the A-Mold wheels that MidAmerica sells. They are both very expensive.

I know what your trying to say. Some have the sunken lug area, and some have a wider lip. and some are just normal.

I believe this is the 50mm offset in the rear: (deep lip)

And this is the 38mm offset: (deep lug)

What are the black 11" ones 99M6 posted? I hope those are not the 11" rears that tomz and pacific muscle cars are selling - i need the 50mm

Both the Factory Reproductions and OE Concepts 17x11 are 50mm. Neither set, that I have seen, has a deep lip. The first pic that you posted is what I'm after but I don't either one of them carries it. I guess I'll have to call and ask if they carry the non motorsport black c5 wheels with polished lip.

I know. What point are you trying to make? You said that you thought the 11's had a wider lip, and I said some do/some dont. YOU have to find the manufacturer that makes that type. there are 3 diff types that are made.

They make them in BOTH. I've owned a set with the deep lugs and they were 50mm offset, IIRC they are just not made any more.
