Hard to please
Hard to please Well I have been searching for the PERFECT set of wheels and correct tire combo for my black 98 firebird for 3 months and religously for one month. 
It is only a v6(and I am not planning on swapping it out) so drags are out. Also I don't need really wide wheels in the back cuz I aint got enough under the hood to back them up. My car is not lowered and doesn't have a Gfx kit on it. (Hopefully I will do both after the wheels)
I am looking for something that is 5 spoke or maybe a 5 split. I don't want rivets/bolts on the wheel towards the outer edge of the wheel. I am not set on a size wheel since I can't find exactly what I want.
I do not want the Z06, ZR1, WS6, C5, C6,or other stock replacements. Nothing extremely over used. Something simple but eyecatching. And Only a Few have them(not everyone and their brother) no Fiske F5m.
Maybe the CCW 505a, The TTII's look good but they might be too popular(plus they remind me of the classic torque wheels like on a old truck, however i've seen a few that were awesome)
I might like the Rebels... I like the niche Rhine's but that is a little too luxary and not enough sport.
I am trying to get some pics posted so you can see exactly what my car looks like and maybe offer other suggestions.
I need everyone's help please. see what you can find going off what I told you.
Thanks for your time, effort, and response.

5point7 -- the american racing 200s is the old classic look that I was tring to stay away from. They make me think of putting them on an old truck plus my girlfriend says they look too much like a flower.
the intro G-sports are a possibility as long as there is an option for no rivits. I'd have to see a pic though.
Rons00z -- I am not looking for anything like the evo's. I want a 5 spoke or maybe a 5 split.
Thanks guys. Anyone else?????

I don't know I might be able to get use to the rivits on the intro sport gt's, but at those prices!!!
If only i could find the Perfect Wheel tire combo, at the perfect price

You never did tell me if you and tom were planning on going to Hubcity this Sunday. We might head up to Belzoni if it's raining on the coast Sunday. Do you know if they run over there on Saturdays or just Sundays? I'll be over at the shop tonight if you read this installing my gauge pod and digital tach. Holla at us tonight, because we're throwing on the street slicks too for a little fun.

Verdad Gallardo the bonspeed look pretty good but it drew my eyes to something similar yet different. which one do you think would look better on my ride?
btw is the load rating of 1990lbs enough? is that spread out on each tire?
If I went with one of these would 18x8 in front and 19x10 be good?

Those look pretty tight. Definately not ordinary. Planning on running a pretty fat tire on the back, eh? We got my tach and pod installed last night, and finally got my cutout right. Everything is gravy now. Just changed the oil and about to put the BFs on for the weekend. 
I have a race with Ray's Trans AM tonight. I told him I was going to blow the blue stripes off of his car. THe only way he would race me is, after I blow his doors off, he gets to go to Colony and get his new Ninja, then he gets to blow mine off. Oh, well, I'll still have no trouble with his T/A.

Joey, I'll get you a chop of all the wheels listed on here and post them up on my cardomain site, so you can check them out. Just email me a few pics of your car or I'll get some of it this week. I need to get a few angles of it, so I can get the wheels close.
