Re: Well....I'm back....

That was a great RS!

good luck getting those Ronal wheels! They’ve been out of stock for a while, but IMO on the non IROC cars they are the best looking wheels.

A friend has 4 sets, 2 sets are original Ronal, trying to talk him into selling a set to me, if not hope to pick
up a set of repo's here or on ebay.....that is IF....I decide to go with them, I'm leaning towards the GTA cross lace again

Re: Well....I'm back....

Welcome back Kotter...I mean Biz.
Wasn't your original plan for this car to swap the engine or performance it up? Crosslace wheels and HP, can't go wrong there.
