I'm looking to get 2 rear 15x8s or so, something I can mount some M/T street E/Ts on. Are there any other options besides Centerline?

THanks!

Wade,

There's always the custom made route, or you could get some Compomotive's in a 15x8 0mm offset for about $270/wheel.

Check out "Road Wheels" at www.usacomp.com

THanks guys! I'm just trying to get the "Muscle Car" look on the rear, something that might be on a 68 Camaro you would see at the track. Don't have a clue what CL's might cost but I'll keep looking.

Thanks.

BTW... with Draglite's II you have only two choices of sizes which is the 15 X 7 and a 15 X 8

and also I have balanced this rims and they are a pain in the ass to balance

If you want muscle car looks, stick 15x9s on the rear with 0mm offset.
