Bandit Snowflakes in 19/20s, opinions?
 
I just noticed Year One has the billet snowflakes available in 19s and 20s. Did a quick search and found RestoreAMuscleCar got the first ones. What do you guys think of this look? I'd really like to find a bigger verison of the turbo-slotted wheels, but I might reconsider these....

I love that look on those cars. I wish they would come out with some larger late z28 wheels too.

Wheels are hot....to bad they aren't 18/19. Rubber is getting a little thin IMO. More from a performance standpoint than looks.

run a 30 series in the rear
Nearly everyone runs a 30 series tyre, or see if you can fit a 35 series
very nice wheels , not common

18/19s is exactly what I was thinking. Also going with taller tires that match a little better than the pics above. 20's might be a little much...:lol:

I just bought a set of 17'' year one snowflakes, I really wanted the bre 18''s but $3200 was way too much money, heres what the 17's look like with 275-40's. It's a little dusty, first time it's been out in 2 years. Now its time to give it a little drop! Telly

That's one of the sickest Bandits I've seen...very sinister looking.:unibrow:

it runs a FI All Aluminum 572 and a TKO600 it's a bit of a monster.

Yes, that car is awesome.. it is just a shame that quality wheels have gotten so expensive.
