Default Very nice wheels! These look better on a black car...

Hey, I like them a lot, but maybe the black ones would look great on my 2000 Red Formula.

I am looking for wheels right now--maybe 17" all around.

What size did you go with on the rims and tires?

Thanks,

JC

I like those wheels. Similar to the machined face with black spokes on a 35th camaro.

Sorry its a no go for me. The all black ones would've looked killer though someone posted a thread with a car just like yours a week ago with the all black ones and the **** was hott. Tint your windows and post more pics at a different angle the see thru windows is probably what ruins it.

The windows DEFINITELY need to be tinted. It's in the body shop right now but after that the next stop is the tinting place. It also needs some lowering springs and new shocks. The rear wheels will probably look a little better/less small without the huge gap.

What size did you go with on the rims and tires?
Rims are 17x9.5 all around. Gonna be going to 18x10.5 sooner or later in the rears. Rear tires are 285/40zr17 fronts are 245/40zr17. Next time I need new rear tires I'll probably change rims.
