I like that look a lot! Really integrates well with the black interior & exterior. Personally I like the wheels in the top two pics better than the third pic w/ all chrome.

Thanks for posting for us to see!

I prefer the last pic. A big car needs a little more sidewall IMO.

I like your first set better. Big car need more tire showing in my opinion.

I love the car - it's badass!
No offense intended, but I don't really care for either of the wheel choices. The Centerlines are too dated looking (90's billet style) and the black ones just don't fit the car. JMO.

I'd like to see what these would look like on your car: http://www.4mypontiac.com/Wheels.htm

Or these: http://www.cragarwheel.com/products1...inatorRWDBlack

Nice car. Not like you are going for pure originality, so I like the new ones. A little smaller with more sidewall would be nice (and maybe ride better) but go with what you have.

I really like the cragars cooper128 listed - look like an old Cragar SS had a love child with Porsche Fuchs

thanks for the opinions im torn between it all i want a new look that is why i found a smoken deal on the twenty inch wheels but i agree need more tire. ca still rides great with them on it. centerline are dated hence the reason i went with new one, i still love the look of the centerlines.
i really appreciate all the opinions.

these are what i really want and they are just plain sexy but cant afford them
