Nah lol got ran over by an 18 wheeler, I was in the Trans Am though. I like how I can hit 170 mph in the car but I wreck it going 3mph.

Just from my own personal experience, give paradise road rod and custom a call. I'm going to order my budniks through them in a few weeks, super sweet price and there probably the nicest guys to deal with

Take a look at CCW.

170 mph....really, in that car?? If so, I sure hope you weren't doing it on the street!

Whatever you do , steer clear of polished aluminum.
They are a MAJOR PITA to polish annually. I'll never buy again.

I got my last set of Foose Legends from Jon @ DriverzInc and I'm MUCH
happier with the painted, powdercoated design with the polished lip.

You won't find a better price online.......and if you do , he usually matches it or beats it.

Why's that? I heard the lead time was long, 10 weeks or so, but hadn't heard anything else.

Her's mine with a set of Rushforth's. Picked them up used for $2000 with tires. 245/40/18 and 275/40/18. There are deals out there. If you want a cast set Boss Motorsports 338's are about $1500 with tires new.

That T/A looks sweet with those wheels on there.

Can we get some picture posts of wheels you guys have on your 2nd Gen F-Bodies? I might be looking for wheels also if this deal with my 93 Saleen goes through. I have a guy local that might trade me for his 73 Camaro that's almost completely restored, but to stock. The car will need to be lowered and needs the wheels changed out. I would like to get some ideas by seeing some 2nd Gens with wheels. Thanks guys.

A word of caution: what fits a Bird will not fit a Camaro you can fit more tire on a Bird

235/40-18
275/40-18
