new wheels for the TGP?

Well, this wouldn't be for a month or so, but I can get these for cheap if they don't sell too quickly (which I've been the only one asking about them). One is bent, but still holds air and seals fine, so I'd look for a replacement, and use the bent for a spare eventually. Anyways, they are Konig Impacts, 17". What are your opinions? (and does anyone wanna do a PS?) I don't really like the second set of lug holes and lack of cap, but I could probably fix that :wink:

Obviously tire size is WAY wrong, but IMO, I think the spoke's might thin out too much near to look good on that car.

 

Then again, how much is he asking for them? If they are cheap enough, then it'd be stupid not to buy them.

well I'd get new tires anyways, and he's asking $200 +shipping. I didn't post up the bent one, but its not too horrible. I like thin spokes like that though, for something sportier like the TGP, as opposed to the spoke size on the 19"s for the cutlass

If you could get a cap for those suckas to hide the lugs, then sure. Without the cap, NOOOOOOO :wink:

what he said!!!!!!!!

 

why not get another set of GP tires? maybe the torq stars would do?

Looks like there on a J-body, how would they fit on the W

I saw that too, but they have a dual hole pattern.....

 

and I'm smart enough to have asked first. I might pick them up if i can get them for cheap, if not then oh well. I'd probably rock them for a summer and then sell them. Or use them as track wheels :lol:

Wow, I'm surprised so many of you outright hate them! :redface: I really like the overall shape and style, I just hate the center circle with the lugs and such.

I kinda like 'em, they would probably look something like the konig villians I had on my car last summer, btw do you know what the offset is?

 

not the same car, or the same rims but you get the idea, it'll probably look something likes this:

Matt, I think you have a real nice set of factory cross laces on the car now. After you get new tires, you could possibly have 400-500 bucks wrapped up in the deal and Im sure that money can be better spent elsewhere on the car right now. Or even just use the money to buy a better set of tires then are already on the car now.

Everyone seems to think I'm trying to replace the crosslaces or something :lol: I'm not, I just hate the gold! I know I'll get flamed for it, but meh. I want to find a set of silver ones, especially once I get started on a graphite interior swap. I just think the gold screams mid-80s, which is fine, I'd just rather update it some
