Anyone need some 17 in. GM wheels?

Not sure how fair the comparison is but when I had to replace ONE 17" wheel on the '07 DTS, new price was $551 and LKQ wanted $250 for a used one. If they don't sell, you might try selling them one at a time on ebay.

Think they are the same wheels on as on this '70 El Camino? That might look pretty sweet on my car. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/703372/19 ... -el-camino

The wheels on the El Camino in the picture appear to be chrome. Mine are painted silver from the factory.

The wheels are the same, but I'm pretty sure you'll need spacers to make them look right. Pretty big offset on those bad boys.

I'm pretty sure the offset is 2 inches based on the casting numbers (17X9J 50). I believe the 50 is the offset in mm (2 inches).

SOLD! This will pay for my dyno tune on Thursday.

Not to be picky, and I can be wrong about this, but I always understood "offset" to be the distance from the wheel center to the OUTSIDE edge. Backspace is the distance from the wheel center to the INSIDE edge. Wheel width then wouls equal Backspace + Offset + center section thickness. These wheels appear to have lots of BACKSPACEing not much OFFSET. two inches offset is probably about right.
Sorry for being picky.
