my car! new wheels and lowering!! plus a timeline with pics!!!! well... finally got wheels on the car, and lowering springs... and its time for a timeline 
here is the car when i bought it, NO i did NOT buy those wheels, trust me
after doing basic bolt ons (exhaust, intake etc) i finally focused on getting wheels... i was unable to save up money, or maybe just too impatient, so when my friend got new wheels on his 95 LT1, he let me borrow his stock ones so i could take the chrome's off and sell them. looked a hell of a lot better, but still not how it should.
FINALLY, after listing the original wheels on ebay 3 times, somebody finally bought them, and they were gone... thank god. i held the money for about 2-3 weeks, looking for a good deal on just about any wheels that cought my eye, then i got a PM from somebody, who said he was selling chrome, yes chrome, 98-01 style WS6 wheels, i was interested, as i have always LOVED the look of those old style WS6 wheels, turns out the deal was too good, and i got them with tires for a damn good price, the guy was more then helpful, and the best seller i've dealt with, gotta make a shoutout to a fellow member named "Snapps"!!! he's a great guy, and a great seller!! keep an eye out for him!
(sorry the car is filthy, these are quick pics before i left for cali on friday)
im EXTREMELY happy with how the car turned out, its a completely different car, i hardly recognize it... but it looks great.
heres a shot of the interior, just for kicks, and YES, that is suede and leather, with embroidered headrests.

Snapps is a good guy. I just finished up some business with 'em. Kewl customer.
Those WS6 rims are the best possible aside from forged aftermarkets. ~Joshua

The first thing I saw when I opened the page were those hideously huge wheels and thought "Oh no, these people are gonna rip this poor guy apart."
Nice lookin' ride. NBM looks soooo good when kept clean.
