Just got in the mail BFG Radial T/A & Torque Thrust Original mounted (PIC)

So these came in the mail today from JEGS. The letters have a coating on them for shipping which is why they look a little blue. There going on my 89' Iroc-Z. Do you guys think I made a good choice? Will update when I get them put on.

Are those 15's? I like the wheels, I like the tires, but I think they're going to look period incorrect on the car. Like they'd look more at home on an older Camaro. RWL just look a little off on later thirdgens. If you like them, who cares what anyone else thinks?

I like the rims, but have to agree on the raised white letters.. Get em flipped...

Rims have a modern take on a classic design. good choice!

Nooooooooooooooooooooooo! Don't you dare flip RWLs.

Want to see 'em on the car. I really like the gray centers. I was thinking of putting them on my blue Z.

Very nice combo. My '84 came with some 80's vintage American Racing TT wheels...guess a PO didn't want to shell out for 15's since they are 14". Still a great design, just wish they were an inch bigger.
