I know there are some threads out there about rims but I have some specifics.

Does anyone have pics of a firebird/TA with Boyd Coddington rims? I really like the "Espada" but can't make up my mind. I saw an amazing red camaro with them but it's not enough to make up mind to spend that much on a rim.

Also, how strong are these rims? And, are my rear drum brakes going to kill the show?

Thanks in advance

what size?

post a pic

yes the drums will look awful, so will the stock front brakes

Boyd espada


I wanted to get 17"

ok, i've seen that car. Its the only one i know of wit that wheel. Im not a fan personally.

Id ask you what your favorite is but this site does not need another huge thread about "favorite rims." Thanks for responding duuude

Exactly the pics I was looking for. Checked out the other site ones too. Very nice bird.

Which model Boyds are they?

18inchboyds - to give you some gratitude. if your the same dude, a few years ago when i was building my trans am i based it off your car! i had the ram air hood and the same wheels but painted it all red not two tone

No more out there? And what about Torque Thrust Ms?

...Is that wing off of a Mustang?

I may be wrong, but I believe that is a Wings West aftermarket spoiler

Haha both wrong but DBLTKE is close . Heres the thing , its an original mecham trans am spoiler . Mecham was like slp is today . Well dennis and kyle mecham designed this spiler/wing with steve saleen and thats why the spoiler looks just like a mustang wing . I actually have another original mecham wing off an 82 but mecham reproduces them for 450 plus shipping . They are smoothie 2's i think . The 2 has the stepped lip . Im mad that i got this version for the only fact that i can run c6z06 brakes since they are the stepped lip version they have a 17inch wheel center with an 18 inch wheel hoop . I was afraid when i bought them of bending the lip on a pot hole or semething . The rear lip woulda been like 5-6 inches and i didnt wanna risk it plus i think these look better. The cool thing woulda been 19's with the stepped lip to have 18 inch wheel centers.
