swift13 Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 i sold a set of 96 monte 5 spokes to a guy with a 93 prix and they looked like shit on his car especially with the center cap having the bowtie Quote
Cully77 Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 ^^^^ yeah it would definitely be hard to get around the bowties on those wheels since they're integrated into the plastic. the 98-99 z34 wheels you could paint over them or get a decal. Quote
swift13 Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 not only that but they just looked horrific thats why i took them off my monte in the first place, and then to go and put them on a prix. no good at all Quote
Euro Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 Whoa! I'm not positive it's an International, but definitely a maroon on maroon(leather) 3.4 coupe with 5 spokes. I'm pretty sure 5 spokes were convertible and I-Series only...Have you noticed if it has a lip spoiler? Yep, it had a lip spoiler! Quote
ManicMechanic Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 Definitely an International then. And for sure 1 of less than 10. Since something like 600 Internationals were made, most were white or bright red or blue or black with graphite interiors. Quote
Euro Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 Hmm...sweet, next time I see it I'll steal it. Or at least get some pictures! Quote
jake91 Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 was there really a reason to bump this considering the last post was only 2 hours before Quote
ismellrealbad Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 read his post a little closer and i disagree about that monte...i normally hate wrong stock wheels but i have to say those look hot on that Quote
Scottster Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 oh sorry here you are: Intersting pic to me...gives me an idea what my Bonnie 17's will look like in the spring, at least in terms of size...and unpainted to match the car. My rear stance will be wider though, and I'll be running 235/55R17 which will fill out the wheel wells much better than this jalopy. Quote
5speedz34 Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 Those wheels don't look half bad. 92-93 CS International's are very rare. Pretty tough to find. Quote
swift13 Posted December 25, 2008 Report Posted December 25, 2008 dont be hating on my jalopy the car sold for 2 grand without the wheels and stereo. (it was a pos)but i loved it, pleather, rear buckets, dic, full power everything Quote
occupant Posted December 26, 2008 Report Posted December 26, 2008 The two Luminas I had were stock with hubcaps. At one point I attempted to fit trim rings and Impala police center caps on it but it brought the fail. Put the hubcaps back on when I got rid of mine, my wife's I never messed with. I see many 1.5gen Luminas with 1st gen Euro wheels on them. Also have seen Lumina Euro wheels on Regals, Grand Prixs, and Grand Ams. Hate seeing that. Some wheels interchange well, some really don't. I wish I had a picture of a car I saw that made me throw up a little in my mouth. 1988 Buick LeSabre 2-door, white with blue cloth grandpa top curb feelers, chrome decklid luggage rack, Oldsmobile logo mudflaps big chrome twin exhaust tip, pointing slightly up Lumina Euro wheels on Vogue white and gold stripe tires, sticking out a little bit Quote
AWeb80 Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 a 1.5 gen lumina 3.4 in my parking lot had Lumina Z rims.... Quote
slick Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 I see 1 gen Lumina wheels on everything!! Quote
Cam'ron Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 i had teh wrong wheels on the 03.... Quote
AL Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 Those look right... Is that an aftermarket grille? Quote
Cam'ron Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 yesir, SLP upper and lower as far as the wheels, my 03 was an LS didnt come with those wheels Quote
oldscsc Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 Saw a green Bonneville with first gen GP five spokes today. They actually didn't look that out of place. Quote
jeremy Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 Saw a green Bonneville with first gen GP five spokes today. They actually didn't look that out of place. if they were 1G 5 spokes they probably stuck out way too far due to the offset Quote
AL Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 Will you PM me more pics of that 03 Monte... I dunno why but I keep looking at it thinking its a Regal Quote

I couldn't tell either way from my vantage point. Quote

AL Posted December 28, 2008 Report Posted December 28, 2008 Got your PM... I guess its just that angle and the grille that made it look like a Regal... If it wasnt for the buldge in the headlight I never would have known Quote
