figure ill start this thread...since its a pretty cool topic especially!

as of now, and how i invision my car at its later stages......

i want to do 18x8 up front, with 19x9.5 in the back. maybe a 10. dunno yet....but

the rims i want are Intro Pentia. always loved a simple 5 spoke with a rolled rim, and these fit me perfectly.

Well there is 2 different wheels that I think are perfect for 3rd gens but the first is discontinued and it looks like the second is now also. But my first choice is Edelbrock 409s. Foose and Boyd Coddington both have wheels similar to these. My second is American Racing TrakStar 416s. Can't find pics of either online so far but they are both 5 star wheels. The TrakStar's are in the Jeg's catalog from Father's Day this year but the wheels are not on their website or American Racing's website. So I guess the search continues. I haven't spent the money to buy good performance tires yet but I did buy a set of Dunlop Sport 5000 symetrical's for my 15" wheels and they were great,but not a true performance tire. I like how 17s look on 3rd gens so I've been planning on using 17X8 front and 17x9.5 or 10 for the rears.
