the wheels look good, and i used to have some non-motorsport chrome zo6's on my old red firebird and loved them..

how wide are those rears?
i think if a spacer on the rear was installed it would look a lot sleeker, fill out the fenders perfect.

Hey:

Great colour, the tyres look just right, don't get much better, so why are you selling it?
