Unhappy Having trouble finding wheels...

I need new rims and tires for my vr-4. I'm looking to keep the stock size (17x8.5), but im not finding any 17s that wide. I was looking to go with black or gunmetal wheels with a silver lip. I would consider going to 18s, but the prices seem to jump up substantially for 18" wheels and tires.

Anyone know of any brands that make such a wheel?

Thanks guys

I have 17x8.5 on my stealth r/t. I bought them from pepboys for $580. American Racing makes the ones I have, they're not black/gunmetal/chrome though. Go to pepboys.com and search for wheels, you can get a visual on any of the wheels they sell and it tells you if they will fit or not too.

The main issue you will run into is caliper clearance. Many wheels simply wont clear our vr4 brake caliphers. If you head over to www.3si.org/forum there is a section devoted wholely to wheels and tires that fit our cars.

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.
