Re: thinking of wheels

I'm looking at wheels right now too. Go to Cardomain.com and look at pics of your type of car with different types of wheels on it. I'm going black with the polished lip on mine. It will probably be this summer.

Re: thinking of wheels

I actually like the ones on it.

Are they the stockers?? They look a lot like the 98-00 WS.6 wheels.
If that is the case....you can strip off the clear coat and polish them. Takes some elbow grease, but they look SO much cleaner.

Re: thinking of wheels

In white cars, I have always liked the look of black rims.

Re: thinking of wheels

best looking firebird i've ever seen was a 30th anniversary ram air, it had blue stripes on it & blue anodized (well they were painted the owner said) rims, now if you could get ahold of a set of those rims & put some matching pin stripes on the car .... it would look sweet. Or go with chrome ones like I did ... got mine thru a local tire shop.

here's a couple of pics of what I went with (sorry no close ups)

Re: thinking of wheels

they are stock 96 ws6, i think. the only thing is they have some wear and tear, a couple curb scratches, and loss of some clear in some areas. i do really like my stock ones but i want some 18's and maybe wider. do ya'll know of any that meet my description. Also i am really not a big fan of chrome rims on a white car, but if you have some pics of chrome rims on a white trans am that would change my mind please show me. thanks

use the "see our wheels on your ride button" at that bottom ... they have almost every car & you can change the colors, never looked at prices, but the button works well and can be alot of fun ... you can also lower the ride height ... Have fun ... I know I did ...
