Default A couple TA pictures

So I decided to take a couple pictures since my sister gave me her old camera. Went with this Coors Light theme. We actually found that 6pack there too... nice little coincidence I'm a little more concerned with being able to go fast than work on appearance mods but they will come with time. O, and I REALLY like these wheels so there's nothing you can say that'll make me take them off!

They're the early 2000 WS6 wheels. I guess they didn't make many because people didn't like them. Funny thing is I had a set of 02 WS6 wheels on it right before these and I get alot more positive attention with these on there than I did with those. Plus I've never seen another set in person, other than the guy I got them from... he had 2 sets!

Thanks for the comments

I think the wheels look nice on that color car but don't think it would look good on any other color car. My two cents.

Someone in my parking lot has a sunfire and the hubcaps do match the design perfectly.

On a side note when we were taking the first couple pictures some kid rode up on his bike and said his mom has a "Pontiac Corvette GT" that looks just like my car except it doesn't have the "mongoose hood." I told him the mongoose Corvettes are the rarest!

True on both accounts. He looked like a teenager too and truly believed what he was saying. He also suggested we hop on the roof and snap some pictures from up there: "we get up there all the time."

The town we were in is straight hick though. I'm talkin no shoes, no shirt... service.
