In the future (not anytime this year) I will be more than like upgrading my brakes and to 5-lug, which will mean getting new wheels. I really like my wheels that are on there now, but don't want to spend $500.00 per wheel. Here are a couple that I PS'd, but am looking for some options and opinions. Have fun!

Im not a fan of black wheels, but damn, that 1st set looks really, really, good. The 3rd pic looks nice also. You wouldnt do the Centerlines again? I looked into them before and they were like $200 ish each.

They all look pretty good.
But i'd try and stay away from the black, it's trendy, and you'll want a new set in a few short years.
That's not to say i don't like them, because i do.

I like the Steedas a lot more than I imagined. I thought long and hard about the Steedas for my car too. ....... whatever you do, please don't get Saleens

I love my Centerlines because they are very unique and I still to this day have not seen another car with them. To each is own, I guess...

I still have a while, but I like to have a lot of ideas in my head before I spend that kind of money. I don't like shooting from the hip. I have to chrome all of my polished stuff first, then the 5-lug/brake upgrade and wheels.

I really like number one, number two is very nice as well, but I don't dig number three.

I hear you on that one. I wanted Fikse or Simmons wheels untill I heard the prices. The Fikse wheels came out to 3300 bucks w/ no tires.

I like #3 the best.

I don't think #3, (SRR wheels) are sold anymore. I could be wrong. They look pretty sweet in that photoshop.

Definately the 3rd set. Go with 10" dish in back and 8" in front. I dont care for the 1st set as it's just to much black, and the second set looks almost like every other five spoke wheel thats bin copied a dozen time already.

Stang22, can you post a picture of the wheels you have on there ? I remember I loved your car, just can't remember what the wheels looked like.

I'd say to stick with a chrome wheel - they really stand out on a black car.

But I would go with a replica set from here.

They even have them in Black as well.

Good luck Tim.
