Title: New Wheels at least differant ones
Post by: chri85tc on September 14, 2008, 03:17:36 PM
A friend had these lying about, and they only cost me 4 cases of pen 15e.

The 16's sure fill out the wheel wells better than the old 15's did.

Cobra R 17's can wait a little longer I guess.

Look pretty good. Dont like Snowflakes, but not a fan of ten holes either. They do look better since like you said they fill out the wells better. And for the price, I would have thrown them on my car for that (ned tires again though).

I am not really a fan of the factory wheels either, be it 10 hole or snowflakes.......but the price is right and it is a step in the right direction ie. 17" cobra R's.

And yes tires came with them :)

And when you have a 3.8, the extra 20hp does come in handy

I actually prefer the 10 holes on your car, but it still looks great.

Irv, I am going to keep the 10 holes, sorry.

Kingcars, I was going for the wheel size more than anything else.

Looks good but then again I like the Snowflakes.:D

If I may ask what size tires are on the wheels? They look to be bigger than 225/60/R16.
