how would a snowflake front, ss 10 spoke back wheel combo look? both would be black. would it be too ghetto or ricerish?
trying to do a corvette deal 17/18 idea but in a fbody since I really don't want to run 18s out back or the gto spares up front with the thin spoke 17s out back.

yea but i all ready have the ss 10 spokes and get get 2 snowflakes anywhere from 20 bucks to 50, I saw one guy had the abs ta wheels and the 17 ws6 ones on the back I really liked that. I so happen to have 2 polished chrome ones with drag radials in my spare room right now, its just really hard to find the 17s for that set.
I can't find any zr1 16s or 17s either that are oem. just trying to find something for cheap that is a little different than everybody else, so I can not loose a lot if I don't like it.
you got any pics bwk?
thatss what most ppl commonly refer to them as so much slang its hard to search for stuff

Give me a few weeks before you waste money on snow flakes and ill throw on a set of chrome 10 spokes on the rear of mine and take a pic before removing my stock front snow flakes.

haha cool idea I just googled that and they look pretty cool on the darker color cars not so much on a white one like mine, but yea I have the 10 spokes black all ready. Didn't know they were 16s, and I think a set is either one fayetteville craigslist or Raleigh for pretty cheap, since you are close to the area.

cool thanks for the ideas its just a tough call I don't want anything bigger than 17s and 16s on the rear severely limits my tire width. And with 17s I really only have 2 or 3 choices. I've been trying to find a set of bmw wheels but the only ones i can find look horrible. Honestly I would love to do a set of oem thin spoke vette wheels but its hard to find either 2 and 2 or somebody who has all ready combined a set of 17s together.

haha i would rather have a 6.0+ for the price of those baller wheels. plus I all ready did the c5 z06 wheels didn't like them don't want to waste money on something i take off the car and take a loss on a month later.
oh yeah it seems like those wheels bend really easy as well from what i see on the classifieds. I mean they do look good and I would rock them If i had them I just can't justify spending upwards of 1500 in rims. I mean a good drag set up for say 800 is legit but Idk kind of feel like you are paying for a name and exclusivity with some wheels.
point of the thread was just looking for a cheap idea so I can throw money else where say a hood or heads etc....basically trying to find the chuck taylor of rims not the new jordans. something I can keep a set of 275s on the back but still not be heavy as eff and look decent. Rather have cheap rims and expensive tires at this point in my automotive enthusiast life. sorry for the rant just trying to explain myself better no offence and thanks for the advice as well no offence taken on my part.
