Re: What Wheels should I get? *Formula White on Charcoal* PICS

BullyDawg: Style looks pretty much the same as the American Racing Daytona rim. I would get in a 18x9 with ) offset. I would be leery about any wheel maker here in the US selling a custom turned rim for under $900 to $1200. The last set of customs I bought were for a 67 Camaro, ran me close to $5000 for the set.

Funny you mention that because that was actually the other color I was debating about changing it to before I went ahead and pulled the trigger.

If you could man when you get them mounted could you send me a few pics via PM? I've never seen these done powdercoated black before. Curious how they'll look on a 3rd gen.

Pretty slick if you ask me!

They look good in black too, though.

Not interested in the SS wheels... I already have a set and would like to use them on a future slammed S10 beater.

I do love the look of them... I just can see them working with the lines on my Formula.
