The Rocket Booster Modern Muscle wheel is specifically designed for fitment of modern muscle vehicles such as the new model '09-up Challenger, '05-up Charger, '94-up Mustang and '93-up Camaro. The "NEW" sizes for Modern Muscle are the 18x9, 18x10, 20x9, 20x10.

Re: Wheel selection

Darn, good looking wheels though. What about those 2nd wheels you posted up Adam?

I like the Coys since they come in 8.5's and 10's

Look at n2billets '79 red and white blazer.
It looks sweet!
And,... if it's between chrome and polished,... get chrome.
(I've heard that the finish on the polished Coys isn't that great)
Yeah the problem with centerline is they dont come in a 10" rear so I'd have to run spacers and I really dont want to have to do that.

What size are N2billets wheels? 20 or 22?

I like those a lot and they are within reason as far as budget goes. I think I'd still like something a little different

I like those but not the right bolt pattern, bummer.

I think they would look good but not thrilled about the 8.5" wide with spacer in the back.

I think I'm leaning toward the c57 in a 22" or 20". I'm still looking though

Re: Wheel selection

Well I took a drive down to coys yesterday, those c57 are pretty damn cool!! They had some c5's in a black chrome finish that I hadnt seen before either. Total price out the door is $1400 for the c57 which seems like a pretty good deal.

I think I'll end up with the c-57's they were out of stock in 20x8.5"s when I stopped in but should have more next week. I'm still back and forth on whether to run a 20 or 22 in back. If I do a 22 the taller tire will solve the reverse rake problem I'm having.

Re: Wheel selection

I think you will like the C-57's. They are a nice looking wheel.
