We have a 1999 Monte Carlo Z34. The owner we bought it from has wheels on them that look like the bullitt cobra wheels. They are 17 x 9. Recently one of the wheels was damaged and I need to get a replacement, but it has been absolutely impossible for us to find one that will fit. I did order one that I thought would fit, but when we tried to have a tire dealer put it on, they said it wouldn't fit. There was only enough of the stud coming through that we could only turn the lug nut twice around. I am at my wits end. I can't afford an entire new set of rims right now. Does anyone know what dimensions I should be looking for? I have tried talking to every tire dealer in the area without success. I just happened to see a post by someone on here that has the 17x9 bullitt wheels on their monte carlo, so I thought maybe I could find some help here. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

 

Stumpmi may still be selling his old Z34 rims. Check the classified section.

 

I guess maybe I just need to know what the appropriate offset should be. Or backspace?

 

I don't know much about tires or rims especially on 5th gen but if your in or near michigan stumpmi is selling a full set of z34 rims for $200 and so is slowmontecarlo for $100. They could all matxh and that's about what you would pay for a new rim of any kind.

 

actually Im in St Louis so Michigan isnt an option

 

Darn. Well ill look into it for you. Hope a couple guys with 5th gens can help.

 

Thank you so much. We are really in a bind without this car, so I need to do something soon.

 

What size are your rims? 16 17 18?
Edit: just saw 17x9.

 

Mine are boxed up.. ready for shipping..

Caps, lugs and new Locks!

Thanks Dave for your help.

Are they 17 x 9? The tires I have are 235.45.17. How much do you want for them?
