Sweet
Now those are sweet... but a little out of my bugdet...
Figure $3500 for the wheels and another $1000 for tires. I'm trying to do wheels/tires and brakes for around that +/-... V/R, Ty |
look at ccw wheels, you can get 18's for around 2600 and they are very nice and jon is great to deal with
|
Getting close to a decision!
Thanks to ALLKAR for the awesome photochop...
What do you think? lmk V/R, Ty |
Wow X2 for the forgelines! You could go with YO billet honeycombs for a vintage look, they are available in 17s and 18s:

Thanks for the complements on the car! It's a work in progress... I dig the Forgelines too but they're just not in the budget. Wanting to do wheels/tires and brakes at the same time. Probably KORE3 stuff. Here's a couple of other pics... might help nail down a wheel that complements the whole car... adding Autometer gauges to the TA bezel too btw... lmk your thoughts... V/R, Ty |

I went into the production area today and checked on those Fuel's. The Seven spokes, and the new split five spoke were cut first, so looking like another week before I have a Fuel to show you. Patience man, it will be worth the wait. |
OLDFLM,
Nice 'Bird! Very clean- what are your drivetrain/ suspension specs? I think any spoked 17"/18" rim is going to compliment the lines of a '70-73 Firebird, especially ones w/ classic styling. I personally like the look of the Forgelines or CCWs- also looks very tough and ready for business. I started with just a few 2 5/8" Utlra-Lites in my dash, but to fit more gauges now I'm planning to replace the stock dash with a NASCAR-style dash aluminum panel. I have Kirkey aluminum racing seats in the car now- very light and great for aggressive driving. Geno |

PST bushings everywhere/front end rebuilt/HO Racing front springs/stock rears/KYBs. 1 1/4" front & 7/8" rear swaybars. Basically WS6+ on a 71. |
Sounds similar to mine (406, M20 4-spd, 3.08 posi db rear, H-O sway bars and springs, e-suspension poly bushings, etc.). I had a TH-350, but blew up two and decided to go stick instead of rebuilding the auto. Have you considered mini-tubbing?
