Are you kidding? You'd pay more for a set of them than the car is worth.

Yeah, that's the only kind of Spreewell I'm familiar with. What are spreewells as they relate to thirdgens?

Latrell Sprewell actually has a wheel company. You know the kind, 20 inch dubs and spinners and the sort. Not something I would really put on a third gen.

Yea i believe the company is called Spreewell Racing and none of his rims are less than 20". I think the spinners cost upwards of like $3k............EACH. Heisman finalist RB Larry Johnson has em on his MB G500 that i see all the time around campus, they're pretty sick but def do not belong anywhere near a thirdgen.

Well for whatever reason you want to do it, here is one of the better companies...

there are some crazy options on some of those wheels.

I personally don't think anything above 18" belong on a f-body but to each their own!

I saw some spreewells on a new white dodge durango and a escalade when I was in panama city for spring break, they were like 22 or 23, they looked awesome. The truck would stop, and the damn things just kept spinning it was nuts. Inside were the finest law biding citizens I asure you but damn they had some hot chics....funny how that whole thing works out.

Personally I think those wheels that spin when you stop are ghey. They are for thugs and drug dealers.

Personally i like the stock 16x8 Irocs (my 89's i like the best). those chrome ones i think make the car look more for show and the polished ones IMO look meaner

I agree with you Need4Speed1387. I prefer those rims also. For the Firebird/Trans-AMs it's the black crosslace all the way.
