DriverzInc: 18" NewGen 500's with painted windows!

[JustinB]

We have had a lot of guys asking to see the NewGen 500's with painted windows. We just pulled this set out or production and they came out amazing! The windows are painted the cyber-gray metallic off a 2010 Camaro SS with a satin clear. This set is going on a customers 67 GTO.

Wow, That color design makes it look like a completely different wheel.


Hmm.. now thinking that design would cover my back drum…LOL.

[muthstryker]

Hot damn! Those are sexz

[oestek]

Wow, I just photshopped the windows on one of these yesterday... like it much better in reality!

[srh3trinity]

Those are going to be perfect on a GTO.

Or a Mustang. :)

Very nice! :twothumbs:

Looks real nice! And you opened the "windows" more. Looks different from mine.

You're right, Pete - they opened up the windows A LOT more than what the original versions looked like. I'm also surprised how "thin" the center section appears to be - different than what I inferred from your pics and others I've seen posted. I'm leaning towards ordering a set of these for my '70 Chevelle PT project, with painted windows, brushed finish on the spokes, clear coated, with custom SS caps instead of the "NewGen Wheels" caps. BUT, I want to go with the style you have with the smaller windows. While it's not quite in-line with the PT look that calls for showing off those big brakes (Baer 6P's on order for front & rear on my project), I think the smaller windows will look much better on the Chevy's (closer in appearance to the original SS rims). Guess I need to email Justin to confirm I can get what I want and then at that point it's time to decide between these or a set of Boyd Ultimate 5's with brushed spokes. The wheel debate goes on - decisions, decisions...

Gotta luv when people change their minds on stuff.
Those wheels are now mine!! Going on my 65 Skylark.
Thanks Jon and Justin!!

[CFster]

Nobody changed their mind that's for sure. I hope you enjoy them.

Magnum 500 with class. Nice look.

Do you have any pictures of these mounted on a car? They look great!

[TheBandit]

Only pics I've found so far are these on a 442, but the windows are smaller. I definitely prefer the larger windows like whats shown at the top of this thread.

Hey - that car looks AWFULLY familiar....

[TheBandit]

It looks awesome Rob. I have serious wheel envy. I wake up at night dreaming about these wheels. They are such a great fusion of classic and modern design. Can't wait to see your car in paint.
