Custom 17 inch wheel selection?

[vintagestan]

I know there's been a lot of wheel talk, but I am having a terrible time finding wheels for my corsa. I'm looking for 16 or 17 in rims, in a nice aftermarket style, to replace my IROC wheels. All of the sites I've looked at seem to offer only a few designs and most of them are a 5 star type pattern. Any suggestions? I put in 1992 Firebird as the vehicle selection, as I've found on the forum that it is a compatible vehicle. And I have checked most of the major wheel sites, I believe, but they all have a very limited selection of what would work. And tips would be appreciated.. I guess I'm looking for about a 17x7 wheel, or would go 16, but no bigger than 17x7. Thanks!

You didn't mention a price range or style that appeals to you. Here are a few I like...






Size: 16 x 7.0 / Offset:ET neg6 to ET16 / Backspacing: 3-3/4 to 4-5/8

Thanks, Brad- Yeah, those are the two of the wheels I keep seeing everywhere. They are not bad but I just feel like I've seen them so much and I want something a little different- or at least to see if there are more options. Below is a link to some nice looking ones, I just did a google images for XXR Wheels, but you can get the idea.

Wheels are one of the hardest decisions to make IMO, they can make or break a car. I was looking into Billet Specialties Street Smart Line before I bought the one's I have. I like BBS wheels on LM's but they are not cheap. Here's a few links to add to the confusion .Jeff
