Need pics of Cabriolets with 17s
I'm restoring an 86 Cabriolet and the customer is considering putting 17s on the car.
Anyone have a Cab with 17s, preferably Fuchs design, and can post a few pics? Other wheels welcome too. How is the ride going to 17s?

Euromeister 17x7 and 17x9. 225/45-17 and 255/40-17 Hankook R-S3.
Ride seems a little better than the 225/45-15 BFG Rivals on 15x7 and 15x8 Fuchs.

Thanks for the good pics so far.
I used Google image search to refind that car and it came up here: Post Pictures of the Right Stance They are Euromeisters.

Here are a few other shots of the red car. The 17's have a powerful aesthetic and work proportionately well. The ride on the Michelin Super Sports is crisp and deliberate.

It does look great. I think he is going with the Euromeister 17s with Continental ExtremeContact DW tires.
