what wheels look best on a TB

[xxninja]

ok so this isnt a tech question.....
but this question will sit in the lobby forever, and no1 will ever answer it.
So ill ask my brothers..

We all know spring/ summer is arriving soon.

what wheels do ya have? or what would ya recommend?
Im sure you all know what looks good.
If i hear, one more person say "get spinners, or get 20s" im gonna scream.

I currently have 15 inch torque thrusts and they are boring now

Maybe you guys have some pics of your cars i could check out?
Im having a hard finding some decent wheels on a TB or SS.

give me some ideas, fellas

The weld pro starts in my opinon are the best looking on the national, a lot of ppl have them that own nationals but but they look great against the black paint iam always getting compliments. draglites are good too but i think they look better on the different colored t-types. just my 2 pennies

i was goofing around on ebay and found some very very nice looking wheels made by boyd coddington. i didn't get the name though. Just a normal looking 5 spoke, but the way it was cut and machined made it look really really good. sorry i can't remember the name, look around i'm sure you'll find something you like, if money isnt' an object.

you could always do some 13" gold 150 spokes

WAGON WHEELS! jus playin, Bogarts are sweet, also like Alumastars from Weld. go up to Mccormicks on Fort St. they stock a lot of rims and tires. If you want to sell those torques email me, im in Allen Park.

What do ya think?

When you toss those TT's let me know what dumpster they're in.

Convo Pros still look good to me.

T wheels and GN wheels look great too.

I like the Michelin Pilot tires too for the front.

 

[ledzeppac]

STOCK wheels look the best

 

[1987BuickGrandN]

American Racing Outlaw I

15x8's on the back with 255s
15x7s on the front with 235s

they look slick on the GN

they ride well

they are very light

no brake dust!

center caps look good


I know 4 people in michigan with those rims

best of all they wont cost you an arm and a leg

i picked up 4 rims with good bf goodrich tires for $800 out the door

They look sweet on the GN!

I'm partial to GNX wheels or if you are rich Simmons F series

 

[2QUIK6]

I've got a set of these Budnik's on my truck, thinking of getting a set for the GN, definitely unique.

If you don't like those, go to the "Road Wheels" link to the left, you can find hundreds of unique wheels there.

IMO - Centerline Telstars

American Racing Outlaw I on my car. The very first Turbo Buick I ever saw, which made me want one after I found out what it was, had these wheels on it and looked sweet, so I got them too.

I second the Centerline Convo Pro vote. However, I don't really want to run the big and littles for every day use. I have seen a Monte Carlo that had Convo Pros but had them set deep on the back and front. It really didn't look bad.

 

[progress1vebmx]

I have the Convo Pros on my car and they look great. Telstars look awesome too. Stockers don't look bad either.

 

[87natl]

Another vote for the Convo Pros here. I absolutely love mine.

 

[Black Box]

For the strip, Center Line Convo Pros:

For a G-machine look, Kinesis K27's. Pricey though!

I've always liked the classic look of the AR Outlaws and Outlaw IIs. I think of them as period-correct 1980's aftermarket wheel for TR's.

Hey Black Box,
What do those k27's run for a set? You ever seen picture of those on a TR?

 

[slamming 6]

The best rims for your car are the ones you like.

 

[JP87GN]

Check out my new bling, Its in my sig.

 

[Big_D]

JP87GN's wheels look sweet. I like the simmon's except the price, GNX wheels are cool for street, but race I like the weld I think they are called drag lites (the 9 hole ones)
