Cool MRR Wheels on 4th gen TransAm

I am new to the forum but have owned the car for over a decade. I was looking for wheels with a slight lip / concave styling in black and something different than what I have seen around. Found it with MRR - I went 19 X 9.5 in with +40 offset all around. I put Michelin AS Plus all season tires - 285/30/19 all around too. I am sure some ppl might not like the stance and would like the car lower. Been there, done that with my last setup with 18" but the northeast roads aren't fun to drive around and not looking to spend crazy $$. Thanks to loads of info contributed by various members which has helped in making my decision. Enjoy the pics.

@CamaroKing - VFN Q is definitely on the top of my list.

@others - i am travelling for work, so these are few other ones on my laptop that will show the wheel closeup. Also found one a closeup from another website.

Looks great! And I don't blame you one bit for not wanting to drop it more.

looks really good! the only thing i would change is the positioning of the tips (looks crooked?) and tint the front turn signal lamps. also, some tint would really compliment the black wheels. oh and the vfn hood would really be the icing on the cake.

Thanks fellas... Lot of things to change slowly (fixing the tips included)... I am going to incorporate more black in various forms around the car (tint the tailights, stripes on hood when i change it)...initially my thoughts were to get the car wrapped in a satin black - I might still do it later on

I guessing the server overload at a particular time might have stopped some of yall from seeing the pics but I can see it...
