You forgot the japanese decals and the park-bench spoiler.

But 17" or 18" GTA rims would look great. BBS makes (made?) a set of 17" rims that look extremely similar.

Seriously though ,, 17" GTA rims would be cool,, and I remember seeing BBS wheels similar to GTA rims too,, out of my price range,,,

(and yes guys,, I'm only joking w/the pic,,)

God,that looks like a vette!

 

I never understood the kick about the GTA rims. Personally I never liked them. I like my base firebird rims a lot better, but then again, to each his own.

 

I would be the first person to place an
order for those 18's! I think they look
much better than the IROC rims!

Finally someone that agrees with me!! I would love to have some 17" look alike firebird rims. IMO, the 15" coat looked much better than that coating on the formulas rims.

hey Jeff, you forgot a ] in your sig. I actually liked the Iroc rims too Tommy. I just never did like the GTA rims, and ESPECIALLY not those ugly @$$ black crosslace ones. Those are just downright ugly, especially on a black car. You have a sweet lookin ride anyways, why would you put the GTA rims on it?

 

that car/wheel combo is ghetto love , IMO now, the car, with different wheels, is awesome, but the wheels just bring it down faster than the titanic on steroids.

 

I have always liked deep dish rims, and the
fire bird rims have that nice polished lip....I love that! The IROC-Z rims are nice, but they don't have that tough look of
the GTA rims. Actually, I am looking for a
set of cross laced 18's for my IROC-Z now!

Not the black ones Say it ain't so Tommy.

 

i bet if you had the cash, Boyd Coddington wheels or Colorado Customs would make a one-offset, I know if i ever get that kinda cash, thats who im gonna be runnin to.
but is it possible to powdercoat billet aluminum without F'in em up?

 

Sheetoutluck,
That's funny you mention Boyds...I put a deposit down on a set of their 18' "Tuned"
wheels. These are the crosslaced design.

They said that I needed to provide the
back spacing and offset information. I have ordered 4 wheel sets in my lifem and not one time have the other manufacturers asked me to provide configuration specs! After much
haglling with them, I decided to cancell my order with Boyds. I am now looking for another wheel manufacturer.
