Default POLL: who likes my rims....

Hey guys, i've had a lot of conflicting interests on the rims on my T/A. It's either a love or hate them type of thing, just wondering what the vast majority thought. I bought the car with them already on, and I personally think they're great, they're the new 18" American Racing rims, not sure what kind exactly. I was thinking about putting my chrome firehawk rims on this car since I dont drive the 'hawk anymore, and put the original hawk rims back on that for when i do take it out for a spin. Oh, i also have the stock 16" rims too. Anyways, comments appreciated, good or bad!


The 18" American Racing rims...



and the 17" chrome 'hawk rims..


Thanks guys!

Keep the Firehawk wheels where they are to keep them clean. Sell the wheels off the trans am and get yourself whatever you like. Problem solved.

I agree, I say keep the rims on the T/A. I've never seen them on an f-body and they look pretty good.

they kindof look like an oversized '02 WS6 wheel to me....i'm not sure if i like them or not...that's just what they remind me of.

I agree 100% with Bad Blue....if you don't like 'em much. off 'em and get what you like!

I happen to be a little biased



They're AR Rogue in chrome. I just bought em for my blazer.

What would you ask for them if you decided to sell them? It'd be cool to have two matching sets for my two vehicles

thanks s10blaza...i was always wondering the exact type they were, and couldnt seem to find them anywhere. I dont plan on selling them, i actually like them...i've just been hearing mixed opinions from people i know, so was wondering what the general opinion was from people in the f-bod community.

The firehawk rims look by far the best.

They look ok but they would not be my 1st choice. I'd go w/ the Firehawks instead. I'm looking to buy a set of chrome Firehawks if you decide to sell them though

I think the ARs would look better if the car was lowered.
