Topic: GOT NEW WHEELS?

[Kevin]

It's a different look, as long as you like it, then it's cool!

[SoonerTA]

I think they would look better with the car 1-2" lower.  I like them. 

[firebird79_00]

thats what i was going to do but after this i dont think so.

I think it would flow better if you lowered the suspension a little bit. So the car wouldn't look like its sitting so much higher but, I know you probably wouldn't wanna mess with the suspension.

Could use a bit more tire, on both sets of wheels! But not actually there to check clearances!! Nice car!!

i don't mind them. i think what would have looked sweeter is if you went with like 18's in the back and like 17s in the front, to give a more agressive look. almost looks to matchboxy.  but its def unique and one of a kind

That car needs a drop bad. IMO - not feeling the wheels

[Kevin]

I agree with OD Simple, but here's the thing JTY88, Everyone here except for a few are basically all stock people. I include myself in this category. I mean, I like Crager SS and Keystone Classics and Torque Thrust Twos like anybody else would, but I think that your rims would look better if the car sat lower and if they were a tad smaller with a fatter tire.

While I appreciate an all "stock" Trans Am, I also love to see how people "personalize" their car as well, would I choose that wheel?  maybe, maybe not, I like the wheels on the car, but would also lower it a tad as well, to each his own I say.  My car is far from original, but will appear mostly stock, I have yet to decide on my wheels yet.

Now this one looks good, looks lowered? YES?  Has a good stance.

[JT_Y88]

yea, she'll be lowered this winter.  She's also getting some body work and paint done.  I love my y88, love the solar gold and the four speed, the w72 pontiac  400. and I feel in love with the wheels. Wasn't sure when they first went one but after taking her to a couple local get togethers, I'm happy ( of course I will be happier once I put a lower kit on.  Come next spring she will be a blemish free, rust free, number matching y88. well tranny and engine that is....
 If I want to keep it all orginal I will throw the snowflakes back on. But for know I'm happy with the new look.  I do like torque thrusts and crager ss wheels, but seems like every car at ashow is , torque thrust, crager, torque thrust, crager, torque thrust II, crager. 
My wheels are Boss 338 they were very inexpensive, knock off foose legends and close to the COYS c5...I think it gave her that aressive new muscle look, without going overboard...definatally needs a little drop. 

Thanks for your opinions....hope to show her off at nationals next year...

Fooses wheels are ugly and overpriced if that makes you feel any better. Good luck with your future endeavors on the car!

any three piece wheel is going to cost more just due to labor. I have a few buddies with foose wheels and they last. Deff drop it though. and maybe more meat on the tires would help. Maybe you can meet in the middle of the two.
