20s on back 18s on front... when it gets lowered a little more itll look better in my opinion....

[Pacman]

What kind of turning radius do you have with those tucked under the car Pacman? Doesn't look like too much is left since you seem to be running the inner fenders. I like the idea of bigger rims but it looks too much like a matchbox for my specific tastes.


Owner of this car might want to do some detailing on the rear axle and springs...



Sticks out like a sore thumb with the rest of the car detailed so nicely. Just saying...


Same goes for this owner who might also want to think about upgrading the stock brakes...

Well I dont know how black car and the orange car ride.. I seen the black car ride by one day but idk how his turning radius is. My friend got the black and red trans am at the top of page and his turns fine on 22. But yea I dont like to see someone put all that time on the outside of car and never do anything to under the car.. Both of them cars that black and that all orange one is nasty as hell under them. And the orange car still running drum breaks on the back...? like come on I got dish going all the way around my 73.. But hey as long as they like it I guess! its there car!

In my opinion, those rims just don't look right on the second gen T/A's. A whole lot of ugly goin' on there.

Ya, I'm not feel'n the 20"+ rims on the 2G's either.  I'm not a hater on big rims, just don't like them on these TA's.  IMHO, anything over 18's starts to take away from the sportiness of the 2G TA look.

X3  18s biggest in my opinion, although I do like the looks odf the Black and Orange 1!  Thefirst orange one has way too much space between the tire and wheel well for my liking.  All about taste but its your Bird, do what you want just dont make it look like Beyonces Car! LOL

There's a guy in town that has a caprice on 20 (something or others) and he can barely turn the wheel without rubbing. I pointed it out to my wife when we were following it one evening and she was in stitches as it simply couldn't turn. The reason I mention it is that the wheels on that caprice seem to match the size in the photos posted. That simply isn't safe as it can't manuever enough if it ever had too.

Just saying turning isn't over rated.

I'm with Old Skool....although I'd probably max it at 17's, I like a little more rubber showing. Again, my personal preference
