I really like the YO Billet wheels, but $3000-$5000 for a set of wheels just wasn't an option. They've also come out with both billet and cast Honeycomb wheels. I might consider those if I get another 2nd gen.
I was really goin' more for a Town Car look than Intrepid.![Icon Razz](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_razz.gif)

Im being very critical but honest. i thought you did spend that insane amount on those wheels which was leading me to say if youre gonna spend THAT much.... at LEAST go 18s.
my real beef with those rims is the spokes end a little too soon. theres a 1/2 inch of wasted spokes (my opinion on the design) and then theres an inch of lip. so in total you have 3 inches on the overall diameter of the wheel design wasted making it look like the centre of your wheel is just 14 inches. compare them to ss 17s on later years and the spokes go to the edge making it look like a bigger wheel.
love that town car lol.

Well, you had to expect a chilly resonse. They're not Vette wheels, so of course they suck.
I really like them though. Yes, a bigger lip would be good, and the billets look better (of course you certainly pay for it!!), but I still think they look good, and it's nice to see something unique for a change.
And IMO, the centercap is awesome! The old Bird design looks way better than the 4th gen, IMO the LS1 4th gen bird is not that great looking.

It was going to be either the Snowflakes for TT2s, and had I gone with TT2s, I would have used these center caps... http://radcapz.com/
