Hey guys, so I've been trying to decide what to do with my rims on my black '84 T/A. I think I've decided to stay stock, but I'm not sure what to do from there. I've either decided to polish the face and black out the accents, or do as shown in the below picture, which is black out the face and have red accents. The car is black and will soon have a red "venetian blind" bird with red and chrome stripes running around the whole car just above the GFX.



I personally think it looks mean as hell, but I'd like some opinions. I don't wanna be that guy rolling around town with something that everyone thinks is stupid.

Related note, chrome lug nuts? And I'm getting the center caps with the red and black bird, and that comes in chrome or black. Should I go chrome to match the lug nuts and chrome stripe around the car?

Damn it looks like the picture won't work. I have the image uploaded to my profile if anyone would mind looking to give me some opinons.

Thanks!

I should also note that the PONTIAC that is cast into the wheel will also be red. My paint skills are nowhere near sufficient enough to attempt that. As you can see, my paint skills barely were enough to do this.

Added two more photos if anyone has an opinion

Let's try this again. Maybe someone will have an opinion if the pictures are readily available. I personally like the one with just a small ring of red on the outer lip.

Honestly, im a huge fan of black and red but everyone of the pics youre refering to just seems too busy to me. I see where you're going with it but i think its just too much.

I guess my thinking was that this rims came from the factory two toned. It made sense to me to go black face and red inserts. The more I look at it the more I think the red lip is too much though.

I don't think my picture does it justice though. The amount of red you see in my pictures is more than you'd actually see when looking at it.

Anyone else have an opinion? If I'm going to do this it will probably be soon and I'd like some more opinions.

It will more than likely be the one with no red lip.

I was having trouble with it so i just put them in my profile. There should be an album named rims.

okay, i saw the pics which are basically Microsoft "Paint" renderings, and i gotta say, some actual pics of the car would be useful. at first the pics looked like Formula Rims from the Tron Universe. off the top of my head though, if you want to keep that factory look, but beef it up a little, some 16" deep dish Formula rims wouldnt hurt.

I mean I did the best I could lol. I'm no graphic designer. I was just looking to give a general idea of what the rims will look like. They are the deep-dish formula rims though. I was just looking for general opinions on if the wheels were too much, or if they look cool. I personally think it's badass, but I'm biased lol.

The car is currently just a black 1984, but I'm going to put a red louvered bird on the hood and a red stripe running around the top of the ground effects.

i say go for it and then post pics.
