      Unique Wheel Idea??

      The car:


      The rims that will be going on her are not our dream rims. Though we love TT2's and originally wanted them, they are so common on musclecars these days we decided to try something different. I attained some Eagle 212's (yeah, i know i know) for next to nothing and feel with some slight modifications they will work well....
      They are 17X8 with 245/45/17 up front and 18X9.5 with 305/45/18 out back.
      Heres what i'm thinkin.... (again, opinions are welcomed)
      Paint the recessed sections dark grey or a matching blue, add black lugs, and plain center caps with the late60's-early70's Oldsmobile emblem CNC'ed on them.
      Pics.... Please forgive the crappy "rendering"

      Did you see those wheels on the 442 they did the other night on Overhaulin?

      That was BAAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDDDDD!

      I loved the vintage look in large diameter billet. And I especially liked the blacked out parts with the polished spokes.

      Your car looks way cool man. I have a red car, but I like to see people do something besides red, black, or silver. There are so many of those already.

      Black painted is better.

      I think it will look good with the dark grey man. The blue doesn't look half bad, but I think the darker color looks better suited to the rim. Good luck with keepin the ol' man on track with tha swap.......
