i have to say the ROH snypers. i have 17/8 on the front, and 17/9 on the rear of my iroc with 275/40/17 rear, 245/45/17 front and eibach sportline springs, they look sweet and even better with it lowered, i didnt want anything chrome since my car is black with blue flake in it, the silver finish sets it off enough. they are simple and wont break your bank! more money to make it faster

Ive always liked the 5 star cragars...very popular on 60's muscle cars and thats cause they look the best i think!

Question - Do they sell iroc rims 88-90 style in 17s or 18s sizes? Ive seen 85-87 in 17s and 18s but i dont think ive seen the 88-90 style

I'll second that. Can't beat the black GTA wheels (althought I think the black caps look better).



GM PhotoStore has a photo there with an 87 that has PMD Rallaye II wheels - they look GREAT on that car... unfortunately the biggest they come is 15x8 I'd vote for the S/S if only they came in a non-polished version.

Just got the Y2k C5s on my '92 RS.
I get plenty of compliments on them, they are clean, not too flashy... and they look mean on the car from every angle

IMO, these are the best wheels that Pontiac ever produced (or GM for that matter) for the F-body's.

So my vote goes to the late model Formula wheels!

Just another set. 18x9 with 265/35/ZR18 Michelin Pilots.
These will have to do until I decide on something better.

I agree with tamatt27, those black Z06 wheels are sweet with the polished lip

Heh, that's not my car, and I hadn't posted in this topic since the last few posts........

But believe me, if that white car was mine, I'd post it in every single topic and every single post I made hehe. I wish.

And btw, in the second pic I posted, what size are those?


And finally, NolanR, what size and wheel are those? Those are pretty bad too
