Default Rims upgrade for 85 740 V8

Looking for rims for my 85 740 is making my head hurt! I would love to find 17x7.5 x 25mm and rear 17x9 x 20mm. Anyone know of any options for this in 5x108?

I have a V8 conversion and an 8.8 Ford rear converted to 5x108. But I'm thinking I may need to switch it back to the Ford bolt pattern and convert the front to match to get better rim choices.

you should just convert to the other pattern. front and rear.


esm has 5x108... well some. They are selling out of them and not getting stock back.

those 17" rims, with the corresponding /45 or /50 tires, will give you a HORRIBLE ride, I dunno how important comfort is to you. its pretty high on my priority list for my daily drivers.
