When I first read the thread - I thought you meant you had both rims on at the same time so I had to edit this post. I don't like Cragers on any car after 1977 so I would go with the stock ones.

I like it- in my eyes it makes it look more like a race car.

No offense taken it's just that I'm tired of seeing those rims. I hate them with a passion. Don't pay any attention to what I like, if you like them then by all means get them. Personally, I think there are lots of rims that look better than those for around the same price, but that's just me.

Do what makes you happy, afterall, you are the one who will be driving it. It sounds like you already wanted the rims, but you wanted to hear someone else say they liked them before you actually purchased them. Am I right?

I have wanted GTA wheels ever since I first saw them on a Firebird and now I finally have them. There are many other wheels that look better, but those wheels are what I always wanted and I'm happy with them, which is most important.

Any rim, but that one. What's your budget? If you can afford up to $1000 for just the rims, I would suggest any ROH Snyper or ZS, 4th gen SS wheel, Torque thrust 2s, Firehawks, 17 or 18" Iroc wheels, and the American Racing 200s wheel. There are other choices too, but I can't think of any.

What size did you have in mind?
