Non LSx car/wheel help(chevelle show car)
Hey guys,
I need some help picking out some wheels for our chevelle show car. Here is a mostly current picture of the car:

Here is a pic of the wheels we are looking at:
These will be in 18's if we go to them. Currently, the car has 17" TT2's, and we are TIRED of having plain jane wheels on the car.
does anyone know of a unique 5-spoke design but not too....extreme if you know what i mean. It's still going on a muscle car, so keep that in mind.
Thanks guys!
Tim

Those still look too busy for me on a musclecar. Stick with designs that are simple and will last the test of time. You don't want wheels that look trendy now but dated a year or two down the road.
Or, do something on a budget and just paint the centers of your TT2 wheels black to match the car. That will make it unique and still badass looking.
I've got gray centered Boyd Junkyard Dogs (18") on my Chevelle, with custom made red stripe BFG KDW2 tires.

I don't know about the ones you posted. Between the bug catcher and the sidepipes, you have an old school look going on there. I'd stay with a classic style wheel to keep the theme going. AR Hopsters might look cool, but I think the biggest they come in is 17x9.5".

tim99ws6, that's a sweet looking chevelle. I can feel you on the TT2's, they're nice but I want something different. It might take me a while before I can narrow down the right choice and have the money to ante up. What about Budnik? They have great options for you earlier generation dudes.
