Default Help me out LS1Tech

i am having a HELL of a time finding wheels that look good on a SOM car. i want to go a different route from the usual ZR1/C5Z06/etc. i like the FM5s but they are a *tad* bit more than i want to spend on wheels

Not sure of the cost, but Budnik Hammers are pretty darn good looking too.

heres a link to some rebals they also come in black centers/chrome lip. the red t/a is my brothers and he really likes the trackstars, they have a polished finish which is more upkeep but you could also paint the centers

rebals

If the rebels didn't have those screws and little extra chunk at the hoop end of the spokes they would look great but I just can take my eyes away from that! And not in a good way.

You're right about the FM5's though. Hell, if it takes you a month to save up enough to buy some rebels with tires, why not just wait 3 months, save at the same rate, and get the Fikse's? If I had the self determination that's what I would do.

I wanted the FM5's also but couldn't see putting up that much coin. I went with Boyd Rebels instead and am just as happy if not more since I saved money.

I was going to say the AR Rebels as well. I think they look really similar to the FM5's (besides the screws next to the spokes). Wish I would have bought those for my car!!!
