Let me know what you guys like. I tring to pick between the MOJAVE, STAR, SCORPION, or the TRIGON'S. I'm in favor of the TRIGON's but open to suggestions. Go to this link to see the rims sorry I dont' know how to post pics.

Also can anyone tell me what backspacing I should have with a 17X8 rim? is 5" to much because it sounds like to much but I really dont know?
I know a lot of people are running 17's know what tire sizes do you all have?

Any info would be great.
THANKS ALL

I like the scorpions best personally; saw a set on a maroon vert with a black top; looked mean as hell. I honestly like the Trigons the least out of all of those, but that's just my opinion; nobody ever accused me of having good taste

I have the centerline star on my 88 vert. GT now.They are 15 by 10 rear and 15 by 7 front and they look real nice.I just sent my money for tsw revo 16 by 7 rims and 245 50 16 goodyears for front and back.The star are the best in my opinion just get wider rims in the back then front makes the car look meaner.If I could have found a good deal on 16 inch star's I would have jumped on it.My stars are for sell pick up only near pitts.PA
