Hey guys, currently have the Billet Specialties "Fast Lane" on the car now....they're great but im looking for a little more "UMPH" :D Wheels are currently 17x11 rear w/ 6" BS and 17x8 front w/ 4" BS Car is currently in the paint shop & is going '04 Corvette Medium Spiral Grey with some ghosted emblems i think.

Car is driven often but by no means my daily driver as it would be hard to load the trunk with pallets of brick lol

Here's what im working with now....

I'd like to do some sort of 18/19 or 18/20 spread this time around....

Something like that anyhow. Intro makes some nice wheels as well as Bonspeed, Boze, etc.... Any other manufacturers priced close to those out there?

Any suggestions would be great....personally i like the Bozeforged "Boost" and the Bonspeed "Huntington"

If you need a price quote or have questions about Intro just let me know. We also have our three piece wheels (www.idluxurywheels.com) now available as 2 piece wheels. If one of those styles catches your eye let me know too. We can powdercoat or brush finish the centers on any of our wheels as well.

Heck, We do all the above as well. LOL. We also do Budnik,Rushforth, Schott ,DPE, Take a few minutes to look around on our web sight and see if you like anything. I think a set of Rushforth Rated X wheels with a powder coated center in charcoal grey would look killer on your new color choice.
Thanks Tim

Off topic here, but as I've also got a 69 Firebird, I'm interested in the rollbar/cage. Is it custom built or premade? Do you have any pictures of the interior?

I don't think that they are custom, only the paint job on them is. I believe they are the F09's in the Gotcha series:

The Rushforth Rated X would look BADAZZ black center polished lip 18s-20s It would go with the black hood IMO!!!

I think (since you are painting the car medium gray) that the DPE GT7L's would look sweet on that car. Especially if you get the brushed center and polished lip... I wouldn't go bigger than 19" on the back though... may look funny on such a small car.... JMO

Thanks for the replies! Good eye Boesch!!!

Who makes the DPE GT7L's ???? I cant find a pic of it?

I'd like to keep it on a 19" for the rear to be honest as im hoping they'll release a sticky tire for that rim size soon.

As for the Rushfords, they're definetly a nice wheel & are being considered as well

PRRC has them.... I just thought they would look bad ass on your car.... anybody can pull off a 5 spoke wheel, but I think yours would look sweet with these.... brushed centers and polished lip would look amazing. I'm sure they can make them however you want....

What about the Rushforth Concept 1 wheels. Think they would go great with the overall theme of your car.
