i am not going to get them and sell them, because they are from my best friend, who has them sitting around his garage but doesn't have a use for them.

we were at this car flea market type thing in new hampshire and i was selling my old car and we took a walk and came across them, he offered the guy $100 for them, and he wanted them for his eclipse, the guy wasnt sure what the fit , but he bought them anyways and tehy didnt fit and we found out they fit gm's so i was thinking of putting them on my car, i have to wait till spring to get at my car to see how they look, but i will and take pics.

i say atleast mount them up. hell your out what 20 to 30 bucks for mounting a wheel? im curious as to how a 6 spoke would look on a 91+bird. i thought about them for my car but just couldnt picture them. mount em and lets see. dont do the 4th gen wheels or the stockers like 98% of this site does. be different.

EXACTLY! At worst you're out a little bit of cash and they look like crap and ya tak em off. Big deal. One the other hand, they MIGHT look good. I vote ya give it a try.

says the man with the 91-92 z28 hi rise, TTii's, and the Ram Air i hood. j/k bro, looks real nice.

to the original poster: i thought i should ask what size they were? 18x? i would assume 7 inch or 8 inch.

they are 18x8's

the only problem i have with getting them is that he was trying to sell them and another kid has one of them who was going to buy them, but decided he didnt want them so we have to get teh rim back from him, and then i would just have ot buy tires.

as soon as it warms up past 35* i will go out and jack up the bird and put the rim on there.

if whats on your car now is the 15X7 wheel id say yes purely for performance reasons. But your stock wheels look much better then those hideous things you want to throw on your car.

Not my taste, I'm a five spoke kinda guy. But hell, for $75 I'd probably pick em up and sell em and try and make some money at least.

THose don't look that bad, I think they'd look pretty good on your car. However, I bet they are the five lug pattern for the GM front wheel drive cars.

What kind of rims are on your car? I think they look cool. Where can they be bought and how much?
Thanks,
Kory

This is what ive never understood. The stock wheels that came on these cars are damn nice. And if you have 16X8's youre not going to really see much of an improvement over just having such a smaller sidewall (some say the sidewall of an 18 is too small for a solid rear axel car). Plus those other rims look hideous so while i understand the want to customize your car i dont understand why you would put something on the car that is worse then what you have now???

the rims that i have on there now are the stock formula rims....

i just thought that it would be a cheap set of aftermarket rims to make my car different, i can't wait to some pics of it actually on the car and then see how they look.

i wasn't really looking for a performance upgrade jsut a set of rims, but i think that i will just give them back to him
