I'm glad nobody likes it. It insures that my car will be original. :sillylol:
I dunno. I've always loved black wheels on solid-colored cars.

Not bad, I kinda like it. That's just something that you dont see everyday. I think they would look even better on a black car, in fact, I almost bought some just like that last year!!

I think it looks great. I have an old poster of a porsche 911 with those exact rims, and it looks bad ***. What rims are those anyway???

They're HREs. Real popular with the C5 crowd, but WAY out of my price range. But... the perspective is right, so they photoshopped well. If I get black wheels, they'll be Grand Sport wheels or black ROH ZS wheels.

Jim,
I think they break with the VERY clean appearance of your car. My vote goes to keeping the stock ones compared to those.

I never liked black wheels on cars because it looks like you're running on all spares. The GTA wheels look good though cause they have the chrome around the sides.

I think it looks sweet on your car. I think you should go w/ the black/grey ROH ZS rims you were thinking about. The stock ones look good to tho you just have a nice ride:hail:

BAD A$$.
I love 'em
:hail:
A black stripe in stock lower, just above GFX would make the car
totally killer

I don't think they look that bad at all... It'd definetly grab my attention. What about gettin a set of IROC rims (85-86 Style) and painting the inserts black? I dunnno, only thing I don't like about it, is that the chrome around the rim kinda stands out all by itself... maybe if that was black to though.... just my thoughts

I'd rather do a grandsport photochop, but I haven't found a pic of them that will work well. I really want to photochop the charcoal or black ROH ZS wheels, but I can't find a suitable pic.
who here has the photoshop material? How can I apply it to my car? I am considering painting my car but would like to play around with a photo of my car and change the color , etc... before I make a commitment. Can you guys help?
it is for real that high , it has airshocks on it!!!!!!!!!I plan to put 50s on the back. The thing about airshocks is that u can adjust the ride hight. I do let them down everyonce and a while . I have to be different. I had traction bars under her but took those off they are in the yard somewhere. I did not like them, so i tossed them to the side , maybe one day someone will take them off of my hands.

You're being different by being just like every ******* in my town. Well, actually, to be just like them, you've got to put air shocks in, then get the biggest, cheap POS pep-boys tire that will fit on your stock rims.
I have new rims on my car not the ones in the photo , I was going to take a new photo after i get her painted. I just am not sure what color to go with. I was hoping someone from here could photoshop the car for me, you know kinda give me some ideas. Nothing else on the car has changed but the wheels. , well wait a min. the wheels, airshocks are new, GT sterring wheel , new speakers, radio, tires, right now I have 2056515 on her. Give me some ideas.

Jim, those wheels define all that is bad *** on your car! i totally dig the black spokes and chrome lip. looks very nice.
Wonderwoman, that is quite the rake in that pic......

First off your car is beautiful....but I think it looks better with the original rims on it. The black ones do not look bad, but they dont look better than the ones you have on it now. Maybe you should get white rims. I saw white rims on a newer red RX-7....I know I know...most of you will say it is rice, but I have a lot of respect for those cars...and it looked great. The black just doesnt make it look that clean...the rest of the car looks very clean and those black rims just break the look. Just my opinion, but either way you go it will look good.

Black wheels=
(on certain cars)
I hung aroung with my 9C1 buddy too much and all his black wheels rubbed off on me. I love my white car with black Iroc rims, wouldn't have it any other way.
I am getting the ROH ZS's in black chrome, it looks sweet. Looks black, but shines like chrome!
Jim-looks very awsome.

Don't like it at all. 
. Can you photo shop some grandsport rims on that car? I have always wanted to see what a red camaro with those rims would look like.
