Default Anyone interested in A-body big disc's?

After some thought I think I'm gonna go with a sleeper look. That means i must get rid of my 4 wheel discs and wheels/tires. Brakes are 13/12" CPP power kit, 17x8" black TT M's and BFG G-force Sport tires. All ZERO miles. if anyone out there is interested PM me and we'll talk.

Oh Man! Keep the brakes, but just have some custom wheels made that look like factory Olds wheels, but are the same size and offset as these.

I have to say that I agree. I'm down with the sleeper look, but the discs are infinitely safer than the old drums regardless of what kind of number you're putting to the ground. If you're going to ditch these brakes, then it would be in your best interest to probably buy some from Baer. I know they make ones that fit behind factory muscle car wheels. But in the end it's your choice. Do what you must.

+1.. there are a few compaines out there offering 17" steelies that will hide those brakes. Don't compromise safety for a sleeper look
