What rims do you think would look good on my car??
I want to have 2 different sets of rims....i know one set will be draglites for the drag strip...but then i want another set that look good for driving around...i really like my formula WS6 rims but i kinda want something different....lemme know what you guy think would look good so i can have ideas for when i do the swap.....
i was thinking of the silver firehawk rims or something....
here's what it looks like now.....

looks great as is IMHO, what size tires are on there?
FWIW...I have SLP ZR1 rims in hyperblack on my camaro, running kumho escta 711's in 245/45/17s.
keep it as is, and get a different set for the strip like you said.

Thanks for all the replies.....my tires are Kumho Escta 711's also....but are 245/50/R16
i really like the look of those ROH ZS racing rims...but i dont think they would fit my car.....when i said firehawk rims i was talking about the new thin 5 spoke ones....but i dunno....i used to really like the Ronals but i dont think it would look too hot anymore....
for a while now my rims haven't been clean and i took off the center caps so that is why i guess i started to get tired of them....but now that i cleaned them back up and repainted the caps i think they look awesome again (like shown in the pics).....but yah i definately wanna get some draglites for the drag strip because i think that would look awesome too
wonder if anyone else has pics of a white TA with draglites......

I think the convex formula/TA wheels would look good. The ones that came on 87 formulas, 85-87 WS6 TAs.
Not polished or anything, just with the stock machined look to them.
That or some of the 17" 4thgen ws6 wheels.

anyone know if you can get those ZS wheels without the badging on the lip? Kinda wrecks the whole thing IMO, otheriwse it's one sharp design

Yup, and you can get them silver spokes too. One of these days when I'm not lazy as a bum I'm gonna strip my ZS's, polish the lip and paint the spokes. One of these days ... hehe

The silver 9.5" is no longer available. I haven't had any luck finding them. I'm sure someone has a set setting on the shelf somewhere but I haven't found them.

I would but I just bought these yesterday. Should be here in 3 weeks. These would also look great on the formula.

its a TRANS AM pondriver....ok mister BERLINETTA!!! lol im just joking by the way
i do like those rims you have but i dunno if i want them enough....i would have to see a pic of another white 82-84 TA with them.....
the centerlines look cool but i dont think they would mesh with my car....same with the ZR1's.....
i kinda always liked the thin 5 spoke corvette rims that i think 89IROCZZ4 was talking about....
thanks for all the opinions!!!
