That's great! If you end up keeping them, I'd like to be next in line for them. I hope Xlr8 buys them for his car though!!!!!!! They would look great!!

Don't you already have a set, or did you part with those?

xlr8nflorida,
For a 90 my first choice would be the Gen 1 Dymags but from personal experience they do not clear the big brakes! I have a set of Gen 1's for my 89 and have the Wilwood Gen III's 6 piston on the front and it would take a good half inch spacer if not more to get them to fit However the Fikse FM5's fit just fine and do not stick out at all. The Gen 2 Dymags would look great as well, granted you could find the 11's for the rear. Regardless I think black wheels would look great with the Yellow that or maybe polished CCW classics in 18?s.

Daniel

I parted with my 17x11/17x9.5 set. I knew I would regret it. LOL Since I sold them, I got a 90 ZR1. Now I wish I had them. My GenII's will go on a 92 ZR1 I am rebuilding.

I sure would like to find someone with a nice set of Dymags Gen IIs if you wouldn't mind hooking me up!

They are, those are the ones that were drilled for the brake coolers on the fronts.

The Dymags would certainly look awesome and the FM5 is a wheel you can't go wrong with.

I would also consider the CCW SP500 in all black. I really like the SP500 and think they would compliment your BAER set-up well.
