Opinions of my new wheels wanted. PIC!

[TurboV6Sonoma]

I am pretty familiar with wire wheels, so i'm just trying to help you out as much as I can. 20's now days are smaller than what people are looking for so I wouldnt think you would get to much for them. that crowd of people are looking to buy 24's, 26's and even 28's. now days you can buy a ford or dodge truck brand with 20's from the factory. I would say the tires are worth more than the rims for sure. Are you familiar with the removal of wire wheels (knock offs)? hopefully you got the tool to remove the spinners with the car. you can email me directly if you have any questions or need any help. 10secgn@comcast.net

Yes, it comes with the tool... It kinda looks like the aerosmith symbol. Do you knock it with a mallet to turn it?

 

[scottyb]

You gonna install white leather interior?

 

[TurboV6Sonoma]

yeah you knock it off (that where the name knocks off came from)with a mallet. Really you are suppose to use a lead hammer that usually comes with the wheels (when you buy them new). You use the lead hammer so it doesnt damage the wheel or the tool depending on the type of spinner (the spinner is the part you are taking off). But you can use any hammer you have laying around. You are going to have to hit them hard to get them loose (keep in mind they are the only thing keeping the wheel on the car so they are going to be tight) they can be a real pain in the ass, but you are not going to hurt them. Just make sure when you are swinging the hammer you dont miss the tool and hit the wheel because it is easy to do. I have done it a few times myself but with a lead hammer it doesnt hurt them. I use to be into lowriding that is how I know this crap, But I was into classic chevy's with smaller wheels not this new school crap of 20's +, that make your car look like a 4x4.

Nice looking, lower it. Id put some 20" D's on my GN just to piss people off here..................... "wheres the curb feelers" haha........ forget them.

Great looking wheels, I had a set of 14's on my Monte Carlo in HS, looked good too

With those phat azz wires, what kind of condition are the fenders in?

 

[bishir]

Fenders are in great condition considering it's jacked up like a 4x4. Looks like its going to needs new springs or some cut springs.

Let me know what you want to sell them for???but don't bother with $3600, no one in their right mind would pay that.

2000? but for you 1995.00

Seriously, I'm not sure what they are worth, but I can't seem to find YZ rated Yokohamas in that size for under 300. 1010 tire lists them for 400 each.

I'm glad you were pullin our chain on them wheels, you know the old saying, if you can't say something nice don't say any thing at all.
looks like a nice ride.

After seeing pics of Bishir's other rides and his garage under construction, I had two thoughts. Either the hurricane did serious damage from post stress syndrome or he was yanking someones leg. Thank goodness it was the latter. LOL, Sorry to say, someone will pay big bucks for those wheels and tires on E-bay.
Good luck with the car, sounds like a great deal you put together there.

I hope everything is coming back together for you from all the storm damage as well.

 

[bishir]

Ha, I needed the big wheels and 4x4 GN stance to drive away during the next flood.

Things are coming together too... things getting better in the world...

Okay, I can buy tires for a little more than a $100 a tire, so you keep the tires and I will give you $4 maybe $500 dollars

 

[8UWITH6]

Bishir, I priced these a few weeks ago. 100 spoke 20s (set of 4) no tires was 575 plus shipping, 150 spokes were 675. Looks good I think...... put some belltech suspension on the car and go mac on some huneys

 

[Quick6'n'-K.C.]

Neil, Zak, you guys need to put the crack down and focus on getting your cars into the 10s!

Great googly moogly

Bishir- Since that car is jacked up like a 4x4, why dont you find someone with some 5x 4 3/4 steel reeumms with 36" super swampers and take some pics that would be odd!
