Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims
They're wheels, and a type that are available to all if they want them...if you're that concerned about people duplicating or copying what you have, don't post pics or have custom wheels made that no one else can get. If you post pics on the internet, they're fair game whether you like it or not.

The owner was BADGTA. He used adapters for the cobra wheels. The car was sold a while back and I have not seen him on the board for a while. Do a search on his name and you should find some pics.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims
*** NEVER MIND I JUST FOUND THE INFO THANKS!!!!
I think the best looking rims on a thirdgen are the Boyd Coddington Espada, and this Justin's ride is the best looking thirdgen ever".
Those are very nice. Anyone know the size and offset on these wheels? Or what's his info so I can ask him. The wheels tuck in real nicely.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims
This is a beautiful car and the wheels look great on it. The style of the wheel has to fit the style of the car .

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims
So you expected wrong... just sick and tires of people sticking their nose in other people's business. Just like some little asshat on a corvette forum claiming he developed custom headlight buckets using 90mm hella projector modules when in reality he just ripped off my design which I built years ago, copied down to the last detail. People just have no ethics left and think the internet is a free for all...it's not!

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims
Sorry, these are the only pictures I have. Both car and wheels are extremely dirty. Love the chrome iroc wheel style, but personally think 17s in the front and 18s in the rear go great on this car.

Re: BEST looking 3rd gen firebird & camaro rims
hey bud, what kind/size wheels are these.. hard to tell from the photos but they look a little bit like BOZE wheels. specifically a style called "injected" Boze wheels which I have been considering.. are these those or something different?
