bring in your design opinions for my next set of wheels on my black 91 z28. not sure if i want to go polished or black center with a polished lip yet so keep that in mind and they are going to be boze so here's your list..

Jeff, do you have anything in mind from their site? There are so many different syles to choose from. Would Boze let you trial fit a few different styles before you buy? How about taking a picture of your car and having them or someone photoshop them on your picture.

 

I say the "Speedster" or the "Tach" wheel with the black powdercoated center.

Your cars are gonna be like good(candie camaro) and evil(black with black wheels), thats gonna be badass.

Thats my 2 pennies,

 

Just going by the the style of your cars, i like the pro touring, velocity for polished, and flyte or high octane for black centers. good luck with your pick.

 

Flex 5 is my favorite but Maxx looks good too.

 

Black all the way man..

You already have a bright eye catcher, the black on black would look pure evil and isnt't seen too often on thirdgens.

 

i'm really leaning toward the pro touring in black with a 3.5" polished lip. blacked out windows and nice clean paint i think it would look really subtle but get the point.

however i'm just starting to draw some things up so it's all in the air. i'm not into the rivet look as i want it to look clean with the rest of the car and i already have the "classic 5 star" look with the stingers on my candy car.

just not sure so i thought i'd pick a few brains... appreciate all of the input definately.

 

im diggin the benton's or flex 5's....polished or coated with your car either will look amazing

 

definately go with the pro touring wheels. it'll be different than you other car, and those mesh type wheels look really good on these type of cars.

 

I like the Speedster, Flex 5, and Boost. I say any of them polished would look kick a**.

 

I like the flex 5

 

My personal preference is the "Speedster";





But if I really had to choose I'd go with this;

 

Ahem, don't get the Boost wheels, I plan on getting those.

 

I say gold plate them, cause that black with a polish lip thing just doesn't look good at all!!! There is a guy on these boards that has something like that and his look stupid... HAHA!!

Personally I would do a graphite black, or satin black with rivets on whatever wheel you choose. I think that would give it a racey look and be easier to keep clean (Brake dust shows badly on gloss black centers).

 

wow they do engraving! you should get the camaro symbol engraved in the centercap

 

speedster

 

Whatever wheel it is no rivets....can't stand rivets.

 

I can't really picture the wheels on the car, but if you were to ask me what wheel I like overall, I would have to pick two, the "Speedster" and the "Maxx". Can't wait to see the car finished.

 

I like the stingers myself.

 

Get some Pro Touring, black with the polished lip and dish, polished center cap with the camaro emblem engraved in with the classic red white and blue painted in. Definately get 18x7 for the front, and 18x10 for the rear. possibly 17s, but it's your call

 

Someday when I can afford it (I'm a Boze dealer and still can't afford them ) I hope to get the Boost or the Stinger with graphite spokes. I really wish they had the Boost without the rivets, like a 5 spoke Velocity.

 

Too bad you live so far from me. I called Boze directly for the Boost wheels 17x8 up front and 17x10in back, painted gloss black. They told me $1700. So I went to Discount Tire and they could get them for $1200. Do you get similar discounts or would it not be worth it to buy from you and have them shipped? $500 is a huge difference.

 

PM me and we can chat. I don't want to get this thread off topic.

unfortunately buying direct is never the best idea... sometimes it works but your rolling dice.

3-350 for a 17" rim is about average. 1700 for 4 is on the high side for 17's.

 

they are trying to push the boost on me as well... you can't get them without the rivets huh? i'm not a fan of rivets at all myself.

 

I think the hi-octane (with rivets) or the stinger (without rivets) with a black center polished lip would look great.

 

I like the rivets, if I was going for a cleaner shaved look then I wouldn't, depends what look you are going for.

 

wow, I'm really impressed with the options Boze gives you on finishes, engraving and whatnot....nice

 

dang, you've already got the stingers... that was going to be my vote.

 

I was thinking of some of the pro touring wheels just trying ti find a good place to buy them.

 

To each his own. I say the flytes..or i really think the Torgue Thrust look sweet. Chevy has a performance book and they have some bada// wheels in it. i can maybe post the wheels for you on myspace and you can check them out. holla!

 

i think your right on the money the pro touring in black would look so nasty!

 

I always thought the stinger 6 would be cool. Stinger is the best lookin in my opinion. The 6-spoke kind of changes things up.

 

I think the pro touring in black with a polished lip would look sweet. Black rims and black paint would be sinister looking.

 

the stinger 6 is a 6 lug wheel... they don't make it in a 5 lug.

 

I like either the speedster or the twisted fatal

 

I like the ZE Forged 'Boost' wheel... Black with a silver lip or some sorta accent clour...

 

Exactly how i'm ordering them.

 

Jeff.........one more vote for the speedsters.

 

unfortunately buying direct is never the best idea... sometimes it works but your rolling dice.

3-350 for a 17" rim is about average. 1700 for 4 is on the high side for 17's.







Where would one find boze or intro 17's for 3-350?

 

I went to Discount Tire for that price. $1700 buying direct. $1200($300/4wheels) from Discount Tire.

Have you come to a decision Kandied??

 

yes.. pics will be up in a week or two when it's out of paint. air ride kit should be here next week also.

 

Nice, can't wait!

 

Doesn't appear they offer any boze or intro. Only 17x10 is boyd's JYD. No 18x10's

 

I can't wait either, that thing is going to look B/A.

You have to go to the actual store. They will look at the website through their computers and then call Boze for a price.

 

Called TN discount tire store.
Boze stinger
17x10=$520 each
17x8=$505 each
Intro Ram 5
17x10 and 17x8=$460 each

Too rich for me.....

 

just do some research... you have to do alot more then call one or two stores but it will save you a few in the end. $400+ for a 17" is crazy from any company. no one pays that.

 

That's why I'm here. I'm still looking. People talk about 300-350 for 17's for the nicer wheels, ie boze, intro but most of time it's like a big secret. I'd love to get them but I hit dead ends every time I call or search the web. That's why I end up settling for the "horrible" centerlines or something that I can get shipped with custom offset's for 300-330. I'm here to learn like everyone else.

 

wow discount and every other place out here was actually around 300 bucks higher than going direct through boze, i have been pricing for about 8 months after i had the wheels decided and saving up for and finally 5 weeks ago i ordered em, picking them up in a few hours from ups....cause they're retards i cant wait to get ahold of em

 

I hope they're not jacking their prices up because of the flooding of phone calls they're getting for wheels. I'll call again and ask how much for them direct. A couple months later, i'll go through Discount again. I don't see why I would have saved $500 but some of you would be spending $400 more. Maybe it depends on which wheels you get.
