Default I gotta see some NBM Trans ams!

Damn, My car used to be NBM. Its now LeMans Blue Metallic, but now i'm having mixed feelings. I really miss that color. Being that I just saw the "Lets see some Black Trans Ams" thread...i'm really bummed. I couldn't find any in a search either

Looks a tad lighter to me, I like it also, probably a little easier to keep clean.

It is a lot lighter. Still hard to keep clean though.



NBM!

I haven't had this car since '01, but still one of the best looking cars imo is a NBM WS6

You sir are CORRECT!!! My car has major potential! I just couldn't see it. Funny you say drop it. My 1.5 lowering springs and custom revalved Bilsteins from Sam Strano are being shipped to my house as I speak!!! These are the wheels i'm putting on soon! Looks better and cheaper than the CCW 505A wheels

Apearently they are the #1 disbributor of this brand. Call em up and talk with them. $1099 Chrome $899 for the others. Thats for ALL FOUR. Their pretty cool. The 18x9.5 only come in 35mm. They have a 3.5in lip! Those fit on the rears. You might want to roll the fender for them as they are close to sticking out. What I plan to do is roll the fender and have the wheel hub machined down about 8-10mm to get a 45mm offset that is proven to work and look awesome. For the fronts they say to get the 18x8.5. I don't remember if you can get those in 42mm or not. That size does work and its got a 2.5 or 3in lip. I think I want all four 18x9.5. For those to fit up front, I need to get to wheel hub machined on those too. Any machine shop should be able to do this.
