Agreed. Last ones for sure. They are all nice though. If I ever get new wheels definitely sticking with the 5 spoke design.

The last ones! These look like a Cregar wheel that has been put on a diet........ I love those early Cregar Chrome wheels that were popular on muscle in the late 60's.

Thanks for the opinions. I agree the last ones look best. Just bought them this past weekend with new Michelin tires. Will post a photo after they're installed.

Mille Milligia (sp?)... reminds me of the early 2000's, should suit the car.

I would've went with 2 or 4... but I was partial to that style for a few years

Default New Rims

I've posted these on the "Hall of Fame" threads as well, but here they are again to conclude this one.

Very nice rims, I'm looking for something like that for my car. How much did the rim/tire set cost you?

Did you have to get hub-centric rings and new lug nuts?

The whole deal cost about $1,300. All I paid for was the wheels, tires, and shipping cost. The lugnuts, centering ring, and center cap all came with the wheels at no extra charge.
