    I picked these up yesterday. 17x7 I believe with around a 3.5 b.s.
    Tires are 235/55/17 and fit great on rear. They rub at front corner in a turn,so I think I need a little smaller tire on the front. The only real issue
    i have found with these is that the hub sticks thru on front. May have to make some new centers that will stick out some.

    Drum for now. I have a set of D/B spindles but no rotors yet.
    Curious to see if that will change anything.

    I Love mesh wheels. I have a set of BBS 2 piece, 17s that are going on my 80 Monte after I paint them black in the center. They wont work on a ford or else I would have tried them already. But I have been thinking about this route with the 16s from the 98-02 panthers,as they can be found in junkyards. BBS on the other hand, will set you back. They cost me 550 and that was on a deal.
