I dont like having more tire then rim i need lots of chrome.. I wanna low ride with big rims 16 is to small and 17 is decent 18 seems to be perfect though...

i like the second one better and its for a camaro. somone has them on here seen them before and they look good on the car.

Nice goal.....

Riding low here with some 19" wheels....

Now both of those styles look horrible and neither are well suited to the thirdgen's appearance

Maybe something with a five-spoke design would work better, and from personal experience if you can, avoid the use of adapters.....

 

yeah my friend has the first ones in gray on his honda :nono:

 

you want pimpin', chromies for da homies ~

hard to beat the Foose Spank 5:

 

UGH, holy crap that is ugly, i'd run 15" irocs before those, hell i'd run stock 15" z28/rs wheels before those....

 

That's cool. I feel the same way about the 3 you posted. I guess that's why they make so many different styles of wheels....... different strokes for different folks!

 

If you'd run those Foose rims before any of those 3 I posted, you need to quickly get to an eye doctor and or head doctor...

 

all are ugly. Get some iroc wheels they look good, draglites look good, overall I like a stock or muscle car look to a rim. If wanna sit on big chrome get a caddy.

You, sir, are correct. *I* would rather run "muscle car" rims (Iroc's, Centerlines, etc.) on my cars, but that's not what the original poster is asking about. My interpretation of "pimpin'", "more rim than tire", "riding low", "big wheels", "lots of chrome" that the gentleman was asking for would be the Foose, or something along those lines. This post isn't about 'What rims would you like to sport on your ride', it's about 'How can we help the original poster find what HE's looking for.'

The Foose fits the descripion he asks for, and they are 5 spokes.

 

Here is my only opinion on big wheels.....

I put 19's on my car and they make my stock brakes look pitiful........










Difference between 17" wheels, and my new 19" wheels.....

 

get the right set of tires for them 19's, for gods sake!

 

i think both are ugly ( IMO) i like the 91-92 stock rims, if u shine them up they look good

 

yeah, they look sweet polished!

 

I like those that Z28***** posted, the first ones. Very classic 5 spoke but with a good dish. I guess evidently Im in the minority, but I couldnt stand driving on my 91 Z28 rims anymore after having them for 4 years.

 

i feel the exact same way CHUCK....

the first ones posted my buddy had on his 97 honda accord, dont look too bad on that car actually but not for a thirdgen.

the second ones are jsut too busy but on a black camaro maybe....

the first and last ones z28**** r posted look awesome, im a chrome man tho...........how much were those running that you posted z28????

 

Thats one of the main reason they're pimp rims, the pricetag, about 1k each, OUCH, thats for 18's, which no doubt any of the 3 would look beautiful on a thirdgen. Im quite sure they are a 3 piece wheel.

 

i hope you were talking about EACH set not EACH rim!?!??!

 

yeah, they look sweet polished!


hey charlie are those your rims?? If theyre how do u keep them like that shiny? They look hott, i like to keep stock interior body paint and rims, (besides nice 4th Gen SS black leather seats) I like to keep the camaro stock lookin as possible, and i think the 91-92 rims are one of the best looking stock rims that came out the factory... If u keep them clean

 

negative, just saw them here http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...sPageName=WDVW

 

Nope just as i posted 1k each wheel. Right up there with Fiske, HRE, etc.

 

OMG.........well there goes my hopes and dreams. lol just playin but i hope they are 12 lbs a wheel for that much!!!

 

i know it's not a forth gen but these wheels are pimpin. nothing but complements these wheels will make almost anycar.

 

talk about needing a drop holy crap

 

yeah, it almost looks like it's been lifted...

 

those rims are Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!

 

right on man riding low with big bling is awesome....i got the low part down...now i just need to throw on some chrome 18's and im set

 

thanks guys i plan on dropping it some time in the future when i get my coilovers. i wish i still had my 89 every time i visit the board i want to get another 3rd gen. dam you guys

 

what wheels are these? i cant read the cap.

 

also heres a pic from the back not sure if you guys can fit a 18x10.5 with a 305/35/18 but if you can it looks sick

 

there ASANTI wheels and really expensive, as I love the looks of them, and they fit our cars, plan on about 5'gs for these. any one come across that style of wheel by another manufactuer with that large kind of lip that they have going on? I really like that look, saw some wheels like that on a VW all done up and I think it make the stance of a car stand out. makes it look like you have very wide tires. thanks

cheers

blake

 

Wish i could, if you've seen the roads around here, you'd be begging for a larger sidewall........

 

hp evos have a nice lip my wheels are iforged and they have a 3in lip on the back and a 2in lip on the front. i think the lip will be bigger on the back because of less backspacing. not sure though

 

those asanti's are just what i've been lookin for sweet, but not $4000 sweet maybe when i sign that nba contract hehe
