I like some of these, especially those last ones. But does anybody have pics of solid-face wheels? I was thinking those would look good on a lowered black Camaro. Any pics would be appreciated and any photoshop job would be good too. Anybody got Centerlines?

sorry I had to do one of them on my car because the angle was too great.. I shall do my best though.. sorry the one with your car wasn't perfect.. the angle on those rims were also kind of difficult to compensate for.



I shall hunt those cragers down but I don't know who makes the eagles rims... Be patient.. I know this post is up before the pictures are, but that's because PSU is a ho and I have my uploads restricted.. should be up fairly soon

Those last ones were Centerline Aztecs. I kind of like those. Does anybody else? What about wheels with the holes in them or solid-face wheels, anybody like those? red Demon, if you can find a pic can you also do one with GM #290 Vortec Z's? or ROH RT's? That's a nice car you have, clean.....like mine. Thanks!

Black_Widdow: here's an ancient picture of my car. It's completely different now, but that was with the 15" Cragar "Center-line style" solid wheels. They were real good looking. I still have them and am considering selling them. The car came from the factory with those on it (it was a "GM factory demo vehicle"), and I know because I've been with my baby since new.

If I find them, I'll do it for you.. I've got my lady friend at school with me for the weekend, so probably early next week we'll be when I get a chance to search.

How much do you want for those wheels? Do you have any more pics so I can get a better idea of how they look? Is that car lowered? how wide are those wheels? Do I ask too many questions? Well, I might be interested.

Anyone know who makes the Rims in Demon Z28's post, they are sweet, they kinda look exotic/expensive, like something italian.

I love them.
