Default 80's looking wheelsl for my 80's looking car

I have a 1982 trans am project car that came with the "knight rider" looking 15" turbo cast wheels with the black bowling ball covers. I currently have the 16" black mesh gta wheels that were also used on the mid 80's buick gnx's but they just arent big enough in diameter for my taste. I am looking for some 18-19" wheels with a black center and machined lip similar to the gta/gnx rims. anyone know of a wheel maker that sells anything like this? i have been searching for a bit but I am new to the pro touring scene so i am not familiar with many of the wheel companies. Any help is most appreciated!

How about these? http://www.forgeline.com/products/pr...eries/ta3.html

Frank at Prodigy Customs or Jon at Driverz Inc. can hook you up. Both are advertisers on this site.

i got a set of forgeline wc3, and if you ordered them with gold center they would look era correct... but so would another "mesh" rim like CCW "classic"

or BOZE "pro touring"...

http://www.bozeforged.com/protouring.html


my vote is the CCW classic with gold centers
