Kandied91z, Actually, before I bought my SS rims. That was my intentions. I had the companys address and all and they were going to be sent off. A few days before I was going to go with them, I decided to go with the 17" SS wheels. Still thinking about chroming the old ones.

well ion you have a nice car that you should be proud of. I like your rims as well, but the stock ones are my favorite; just wish they were an inch bigger.

Thanks. I loved the stock ones. I'm planning on polishing or chrome them... and using the rear one as slicks. Down the road. That way I can have slicks and good looking wheels. I agree with the inch bigger. Too bad instead of 17" iroc... they didn't make 91-92... but then again.. IROCs are nice as well.

I completely agree with you ion; if i had an iroc i would definately ride on at least 17's, but as much as i love the iroc wheel i like the 91z28 wheel and i don't think it looks the same when you interchange the years. but, it's purely my opinion.

looks great a383z; you've got mail.

formula; you can trade your rims in an add about 800 or so to have them chromed or if you need rims you can have them plated any number of layers. tripple plating will run you some where around 2g's. if you can find a good plater and take care of them single plating is the best way to go cost wise for sure.

a383z, where did you get your center caps?
