New rims are in! something different... EDIT: Pics on car on page 2
Got my new rims in today, and i love them. No pics on car yet, still need to get some tires. Will update shortly. Rims are Ruff Racing 279, 19x8.5, and 19x9.5 rear. I went with all chrome, they have a real nice lip in the rear which is the look I want. As far as I know, i'm the first f-body with these wheels, I have seen a few GTO's though. I wasn't sure about the 6 spoke design, but i'm liking it so far. Here are a few crappy pics, more to come. Oh and I got a killer deal on them from a non sponsor, PM if you want more info.

Interesting...nice to see something different for a change. They kind of look trucky IMO, but I'll wait to see them on the car before I form an opinion.
Definitely WAYYYYY better than the Vette wheels though!!!!

Those will look sweet I should know cuz I have them... just kidding but there is a kid that has them (99.9% sure they are the same)on his T/A down here in Mass, but I think they are 18's. But I'll tell you that you'll love them, I think they look sweet on his car. Get em mounted asap and lets see some pics. I plan on going up to Epping sometime soon after my headers are on and it gets tuned, maybe I'll get to see them in person if you ever are up there.
