Re: new look for an old old's

I think the wheels look nice. The GTP emblem is a little iffy in my opinion, I'd keep it more stealthy myself. How cool it will be smoking a ricer or an occasional Mustang (when you get the GTP drivetrain in her) with a grocery getter Oldsmobile.....

Re: new look for an old old's

Though tacky, its what you like and I guess that cool, but couldn't you have at least removed the center caps and put the ones from the olds wheels in it?
Just a thought I guess.

I doubt the centers would have transferred....

Re: new look for an old old's

Almost all of the centers from GM rims transfer. Some of them even transfer to Chrysler rims too.

i tryed kinda a down side on that the center caps for the olds emblem are too small but the tires do make a big difference in handling and turns and in the rain and it might be tacky but i dont think so its better then the wire spoke wheels i had on there before and ya the new suspension also helps alot. i dont get sea sick anymore
