That's a nice lookin' Formula... I definitely think a set of good wheels would really set it off.

Here are the ASA wheel in either 16x8 or 17x8, and no chrome. Guess it really doesn't look all that good in that size..

Well, thanks! Tha car is a very low milage car, never driven in the winter, and all original. Garaged most of the time, immaculate original paint, and looks almost new on the inside! But I had to pay for that i guess, paid app. 15 thousand dollars for it, but cars are way more expensive here.

How much was it again for a new 2002 trans am in the US? Approx 20 thousand dollars? In Norway you would get a Skoda pickup which is a checkislovakian ( I think) car with a 1,2 litre and 60 hp for that price. A new Golf 1,6 "standard" would set you back 36 thousand $, and a new 2002 f-body with 5,7 costed app. 122 thousand $. So no wonder there aint much of them f-body's around here..

Actually i read last night that they sold an average of 1(!) caddy a year in Norway...

You think I would be viable to apply for asylum in the US, based on the discrimination of my religion which is worshiping V8 powered american cars? ;-)

The chrome one was at too much of an angle to make it looks right on the pic of your car so here a quick 'chop' (even though I use PsP) of the other wheel you posted above... oh yea, I also lowered it a little...

Nice job! They even look kinda nice. Would be even better in chrome I guess. Did you use the same size on the rims as the ones I had? Since both of them would be 16x8 I mean...

Thanks alot!

So now we have it. Which one will it be? Those in chrome, or the Torq thrust II's?

The ASA's look a bit more modern...Which is a plus in my book. Well come with your opinions!

Well.. apparently I didn't scroll far enough up in yuor other post to see that size part you said.. I mainly looked because I had to see what happened to that back wheel I made the wheels just a pinch bigger than the stockers (as close as I could get to the 17" look).

Here they are in 16x8 and no lowering. Wasn't all that hard photoshoppin' either, after I understood the meaning with "layers"

Think they still look good, and a bit more modern than the TT II's. I like the more modern look, but my optimum choice would have been the ROH wheels, but I couldn't get them over here. So now I'm more sold on these ones again...actually I ordered the TT II's, but they newer seem to get here. Maybe they really dont get here at all...I dont know...anyway I need some wheels for my car!
