These rims are Riken, and are 16x9.5 and would come with centercaps.

I could do black accents like black ram air decals too Xsta sound good?
I might just go and pick up the rims and tires just to try them, worst case I can sell 'em they are cheap.

I'd take shot at a it and put the black accents on as well; it's different but it might look pretty good.
Worst comes to worst, you can always sell them on ebay!

I would only put those wheels on if you were going for a nascar or rally car look. If you had stickers/sponsors stuff all over it and it was lowered with huge a$$ tires on it it would be pretty cool to see that. But you have a bling-bling f-body, stay with the shinny stuff.

Uuuuhhh ...maybe if you're going for the Road Warrior look! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> Actually ...I think you're better off with you're stock wheels or a good set of aftermarket ones IMO! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

They look like the wheels that came on some of the 87 mustangs. I'm not actually sure if they came stock but i have a friend with a similar rim. Poilished outer lip, black powedercoated in lace. I've seen a white mustang with white centers also. Looks VERY similar, I like them a lot, I think it would look good.

They do look like 89 TTA rims and I am not normally a fan of rims like this but I am getting a hella deal on these 16x9.5's with Bridgestone tires and I want to do something totally different than y'all. I am a huge fan of A/R's and Fiskes but my wallet is all for drag racing.

Maybe you could paint your car black and get a red sensor installed in front..."Hello Michael"

Not exactly my choice for a wheel on your car. The color and look don't go well together. I'm not being judgemental; I'm just stating my opinion.
Don't forget the feathered hair and the "Frankie Says" tee shirt. I think you could download and burn a Duran Duran mix CD for your stereo, too! <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />

I already posted, but I must ad to the 80's theme we have going. Lets see, you'll need a few shirts
-metallica
-satanica
-slayer
maybe a few steve miller band shirts if your going for the late 70s early 80s
gotta have a mullet STLB baby! definately the mirrored sunglasses
and a few pair of bleeched/cut-up jeans should do it
