W bodies with the Wrong stock wheels

Steel wheels are a gem in Ohio...CaCl2 corrodes the alloys and they leak constantly

I was not expecting that.

It's amazing that any of those are even on the road at this point. ..

I always wanted an SX... drop a 350 in there... LSx now since the 350 is starting to be dated. Run EFI on it, murder it out... yeah.

Whenever I think we are all 110% weird for being so into cars that are on a general term, boring....I gotta think there could be worse cars we could be fans of :lol:

I'm thinking a set of 94-96 GP 5 spokes might look good on the Regal...hate that Pontiac is engraved on one of the spokes, though...

 

Still, I might need to start searching for a set.

Scuff up the lettering with some very course sand paper (36 grit) fill the letters with "quick steel" sand and paint. Mine's on three years, still looks good.

I'd been wondering if you'd filled the letters in or just lived with Pontiac on the spokes it in the winter...I've somehow decided out of all the sample pics out there, that whatever wheels that look good on your car will look good on mine. Which is why your crosslaces-then-spokes pics made me decide I need spokes.

I always thought that'd be so hard to work on

Those are usually easier to work on.  You can see into the engine bay far better and reaching around the back is also easier.

Any other pictures of that car?  Wonder why it's at an insurance(assuming) auction
