Old School
As I anxiously await my new Forgelines, I decided to take the car out and snap some pics of what it looks like now...

They are true Minilite wheels (the new aluminum 15x8" 'Trans Am' wheel that they still make). I plan to keep them and swap them back on when the urge arises. Originally Posted by Twentyover

The Minilites won't work with a big brake kit, but I'll hang on to them at least until I upgrade. Originally Posted by musclecarjohn
