Help me choose some new INTRO wheels...

[nitrorocket]

I like the 4 wheels below in 18x9 and 18x11, what do you think for my car from INTRO Wheels??? Any other wheels you think may look better that I am overlooking? Am I barking up the wrong tree?

Oh, and pretty soon the car will have a front air dam, that will change the look a little also.

I think the bottom one will look better for your car. I got the Ids 307 with custom center from Jon Driverzinc, great guy to deal with.

I like the top one personally, are you going with all shiny or are you thinking about some of the wheel brushed?

It is funny seeing your present wheels, I am basically going to do a wheel swap on my Nova and my present wheels are Centerline Scorpions which are close to your style, are yours 17's or 16's?

Here's a quick and dirty Pshop.. Personally, I like the top ones..

How do you do that??? What program?


I guess that is pretty much how they would look, except for I would have a much larger offset of the web.

Here is a car with the same wheels.

Some foose wheels like the nitrous look cool, but they look slow.

Speaking of wheels and were talking about them i got to see the new Billet Specialties wheels out, they unvailed them at Columbus really sweet making my order as soon as they finish testing them there a racing wheels more drag racing than anything but awesome stuff dont know why they never made them before!
Talked to a cool guy there working said the boys from jegs were excited to see them so they where comming over to checking them out at the show, really sweet SFI approved light weight and in sizes for all not sure about 17" and ups but on my pro street they will go lol, heres a few photos,
And as for the Chevelle go with a 5 star design never go wrong there!

All of those wheel choices are beautiful. It might help to define your car before you choose:

Your car has a very classic look with a vinyl top and lots of chrome. So I would choose a classic, but shiny wheel. Second from the top seems to fit that profile best. It is essentially a classic five spoke look even though it technically has ten spokes (which makes it more modern looking than typical five spokes). I like the polished look as well since you have a lot of factory chrome. Talk to Frank at Prodigy about Forgelines as well.

Nice choices.

[LateNight72]

Used photoshop cs2.

Now that you added the other two choices, I kind of like the third one best..

[nitrorocket]

Most likely I am going to ditch the vinyl top this winter.

[G-Body]

Dont loose the top thats what makes the car its getting to where you dotn see any vinyl tops anymore sure there great without them but it makes up the chevelle look if its good keep it and like they mentioned early a sweet car is all about the right theme not just bolting on whats cool and everyone elses is running nd its hard to do but thats why i have posted ?'s here aswell alot of talented people on this site

[nitrorocket]

Thanks...


I am starting to like the ID309, The 3rd set down...

[markss28]

I like the first and the last the best. I still think all of them look a little busy but If you paint the center and of course go with a bigger lip then I should work nicely.

By the way love the car. TTLS1 cool.

[rich-allen]

At first I thought the last one looked the best, then I seen the second one down photochopped.
The second one down :thumbsup:

I like the first one. Looks similar to a BBS wheel.

Keep the vinyl top. The grain in the vinyl disturbs airflow and creates downforce. Like thousands of tiny vortex generators. :unibrow:

Scott, did you ever get rid of the T56 you were trying to sell?

[Bandit Ls-1]

i like the 1st set but a 5 spoke is the way to go!

[nitrorocket]

Thanks for the photo shops! That really helps!

I like 5 spokes, but everyone has them, I want something different, and something that says buisness!

Van, I still have the trans, I am yanking it out this weekend, want it? Direct bolt in.:unibrow:

[rocketman]

Find a wheel that doesn't have the bolt head look on the rim.

[McssGmachine]

I like the BBS style wheels!:yes:

[DriverzInc]

I like the ID321's and 309's. If you were to keep the vinyl top (I kinda dig it) then I'd go with a flat black centered wheel. Call me when you get a chance 951-609-3483. I'll help you out with the right wheel to fit the look you are after.

[Tim Baillie]

I like the BBS style wheels!:yes:

BBS RC's are the best looking wheels every made IMO.............wish they had a offset for my Regal...............:(

[Rybar]

My vote is to remove the vinyl top and put on a set of these Intro's:

ntchbl67,
Do you have any more pics of that 69 ragtop you guys built? I have been considering that wheel and how it would look on my 69. Any pics showing the entire car or close ups of the wheel mounted would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jim

Yes I do, I have pictures of the full build but I will have to get them out of my old computer. I'll try to get them to you as soon as I can!
