Do the centers either gloss or flat black, and leave the lips polished. IF you do them all black, put a red pinstripe on the outer lip of the wheels, that way it would break it up a bit.

That lip is sick! Black out the centers and leave the lips polished if you're going to go with black.

is the lip that big because of the mini-tub?

What are the specs (offset too) for those rears?


It's hard to see mine, but I have a red pinstripe on these y2k's.

I think they'll look badass if you leave them polished, or go with black centers.

Sweet looking car man!

Lol, i think we have semi-similar tastes. I wanted that car b4 it was sold to the previous owner cuz of that wheel setup. Eventually, I ended up with a black ws6, wanted to get the setup similar to what yours is wearin. I decided the mini-tubbing was much to much money for me. I went out and got black ccw's (but with polished lip, despite considering all black) you can kinda see here:http://s114.photobucket.com/albums/n269/ponyackn/

I would probably keep what you have right now, just re-polish. Did the tranny get fixed yet?

yeah im assuming you were looking at getting the car a while ago? when it was missing some gears or something in the stock 4l60? after it wasnt selling, he later put a CPT built pro race 4l60 in it with a Yank 3200. that might be coming out and being replaced with th400 as ive got a solid roller 383 with a big single turbo in the works
