Okay finally got some time to get her all cleaned up and wheels bolted on. I know I need the chrome lug nuts, they are already on order. I think it may need to be dropped one inch and some cross drilled/slotted rotors to reallly finish her off. What do ya think??

WoW !!!!! I'm amazed how good that looks . Those are my favorite Rims that looks extremely good . Amazing how much the overall look of a car can change from a set of rims . That is the best looking Gen 1 RT/10 rim combo in my own opinion . Thanks for sharing looks great! :2tu:

I like the wheel to start with. :cool:
It should look good on most any car, it's very similar to a Fikse wheel

Hey Bombo, can you take some more pics. For some reason, I can't get a good side profile look, like the one photoshoped by Austin. It's the lighting, shadows or something. Also add a little armor-all to ehance the look.

I think they would look awesome, but need more shots (preferably on the road).

Agreed, I really like it! I am contemplating rim replacement as well, my 97 stockers I hear won't hold up well in race conditions, and I have a bunch of local guys pretty much strong arming me into racing my Viper. I think those rims will be a candidate for my gen II GTS.

Yes, please post some more pictures. The wheels look great. The ONLY fuss I would have would be that they have "SRT" etched in the wheels...

Now ya see that is exactly what I was thinkin BAZ!!! Its too bad that you wont be at Tator's this weekend or I PROBABLY would have just unbolted them right there and gave them to you and drove home on 4 borrowed spares. But, since you are not coming across the pond this time guess I will just have to hang on to them until something even more hidious comes along.

Those look HOT. If they were reasonably available a year ago, i would have chosen those over the split spoke SRT's for my GEN 1. GREAT JOB! You are not too far from me either, i am in Danbury CT...I look forward to seeing it in person this weekend at Tators BBQ...:2tu:

Said it before with other Gen I and II's and I'll say it again. Awesome upgrade. Makes it look like you bought it yesterday.:2tu: Only thing I dislike about the pics is that the windows are still on while top is off. (sorry, ocd on my part):D
