Those wheels...... I like it like that.. fill em with bigger rotors and the look will change for the better.

Yeah they kind of work for me also.
A set of Forgeline ZX3Ps would also look pretty good IMO.

I would go with a black 5-spoke wheel, something with fatter spokes. Similar to what is on it, but billet centers and a polished lip.

i like the wheels but they look too cheap- I either wanted something billet or atleast higher end chrome- I know Im looking into some baer brakes for the front- The rears I converted to disk a while back and im not going to go any further with them- I already had to notch and box the frame so it could slide over the caliper as the it airs down- THis thing was supposed to be a tw pig slash family wagon and its already gone way overboard. I just need to get omething nice on there and start enjoying it- I was looking at the zinetti throwbacks- Maybe some 8 in front and 10s in the rear

I agree with keeping those with bigger rotors. It would look better and be within your budget.

How about a set of fatter five spokes like these, but with a black center?

Take a look at some of our three piece and two piece wheels. We can do any of our wheels with powdercoated centers. We're also offering the 3 piece styles in a two piece wheel. A set of these wheels with a dark charcoal center would look awesome.

The current wheels, just sprayed the same color black as the body.
Cheap and it would look cool on that car, considering how you've blacked out almost everything else.
Or just keep them as they are.

13" Dayton Wires....., generals with white walls for sure!
Kidding.....The wide 5 spoke wheels would get my vote.

these were my first choice but not right for the car- Bonspeed big blocks

I ended up pulling the frame, doing shock waves in the rear, ditching the nitrous, converting to ls1 ecu and a BFT (for a street car). Got pritty far in two months then we bought a house.
So close but so far away- haha

I'd leave the wheels that are on the car in black and add a red pinstripe to the wheel and the car.
