      Need some advice...

      So im thinking its time for some change on the Nova. Could someone suggest me some rims that would look good on it? I also plan on mini tubbing and a little lowering all the way around on her so i could fit some nice 315's in the back. Any advice is much appreciated.

      72NOVASS, There are just so many choices out there.But if you could tell us what style of wheel you like that will get the ball rolling.Do you prefer a traditional 5 spoke or something alittle differant.polished or maybe a powdercoated center? what size? what price range would you like to stay in.We are a dealer for Budnik,Coys,Billet Specialties,FOOSE,Bonspeed,American Racing,Boyd Coddington,and in just a matter of hours.Intro. I'm sure we can find you a wheel you will like.Let us know if we can help Tim.
      As for a suggestion I think something with a powdercoated center in a steel grey would look killer on your car with the silver paint.You could go with a polished hoop for alittle more blig.or a brushed hoop for more of a trasher/ street fighter look.

      Thanks for the reply! As for style I really like the multi-spoke. I just cant seem to figure out if I like the powdercoated or the polished look. Reguarding size I think either a 17 or 18. Price range is still up in the air right now. Thanks for your help!

      I Like the Budnik Gasser on the darker car.But I also like the torque thrust with the silver.You really can't go wrong either way.Personal preference is what it really boils down too.

      I think it would look pretty killer just dropped over the existing rolling stock. Rallyes on a silver car just do it for me. My .02

      You should check out the Budnik Sparks. Killer looking wheel and I think it would look great on the Nova.

      Fair enough. How low are you thinking? Looks like those collectors and the oil pan are already pretty close to the ground.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      I put my 16x8 TTII on my Nova it looks killer, I might paint the spokes silver but it looks killer polished,

      buy Dans and paint the spokes Satin black!

      I'm painting my car back Gold, so gray or black would look great!

      oh yea, I have a set of Rallys too, Love em!!!

      This picture is a few months old, since then i have installed a Bill Mitchell 427 all aluminum small block and different headers. The clearance is much better now.
