W bodies with the Wrong stock wheels


Recommended Posts

I see those horrible wheels everywhere on everything, each time they get a little worse

 

 

Looks pretty damn good to me.. :thinking:

I'm in the "they look horrible" camp. I don't care for the style, and then when you get them in stock size, what's the point? Stock styles look better.

it's too bad GM never made these as 16s.... 17s wouldn't have happened in the era, but i wouldn't turn those down either.

I remember I wanted Estrellas for my Lumina when I was like 16. Thank God I never went through with it, they're so over done it's gross.

If rims have that curved style....they should come as Left and Rights....I hate having them go opposite directions on the car....

took while driving best i could get, impala on caddy deville rims

in my neighborhood there are so many of these mix ups, i saw a old yota pick up on charger rims just the other day.

lesabre with aurora wheels = improvement over stock, though i like the 5 spoke versions the LSS got better.

5th gen MC with 6th gen wheels, i also like.

and of course, Andrei's and now BXX's regal, always a good combo.

I wonder if those are or if they're the SLP replicas

its like sts wheels and grand prix sedans were made for eachother...
Well I can't say they're really "made for eachother" as mounting them required me to buy a set of 25mm x 70.3mm Center Bore Billet Hubcentric spacers... But I'm very happy with the way it turned out in the end, especially with the g6 center caps to finish them off :biggrin:

I had those same center caps on the torque stars on my old GP. Absolutely loved them, for being such a small..minor change

Yeah you had the black ones stock correct? I had toyed with the idea of running those on here too, but decided I liked these ones better :biggrin:

would look better with first gen wheels.

 

he also had straight piped exhaust with just a resonator. sounded like a 3.1 w/ rusty mufflers. I enjoyed it.

I could see that as an improvement since move 6th gen wheels look like autozone rejects. :)

nearly every time we go to town, there is black 00-05 MC with 95-97 MC Z34 wheels on it... kind of like.

AAAAAnd the drivers side has the stock fat fives :lol: I had to find 4 wheels with the right size/decent tires, the others were shot, best I could do

I guess my car fits this thread too, and if you consider that it's a 91, then the rear wheels in this pic aren't correct either. :gr_grin:

Nothing about that car is correct. The front bumper cover, rear cladding....THE ENGINE

 

 

:lol:
